Pompey are back in action this afternoon as they make the long trip to Lancashire to face early strugglers Burnley.
That impressive run has lifted John Mousinho’s troops into early-season play-off talk and are currently just two points outside the top eight.
Burnley, however, have picked up just one win in their opening 12 league matches and this week appointed Fabio Celestini as Nicky Hayen’s successor after he was sacked last weekend, with the Clarets in the relegation zone.
We’ve taken a look at the early team and injury news from both camps ahead of today’s Turf Moor contest.

6. John Swift - Out
A knee injury continues to rule out the midfielder, who has missed the previous five matches. | Jason Brown
7. Colby Bishop - Out
After a second scan, Mousinho revealed this week the striker's knee issue is worse than originally thought. There is no timescale over the striker's return. | Portsmouth Football Club/Jason Brown No further distribution permitted without prior written permission/agreement
8. Aaron Ramsey - Out
