The Pompey cavalry is returning!
And that means Blues boss John Mousinho faces some huge calls over his team selection to face Alex Neil’s Millwall at Fratton Park.
With Nico Schmid, Callum Lang and Adrian Segecic back in the equation, the extent of the trio’s involvement is a massive factor going into the game.
Then there’s the roles of the likes of Colby Bishop, Conor Chaplin and John Swift, after illness kept the latter out against Hull City.
And what about Pompey’s formation after using a back three in their past two outings?
So much for everyone to ponder going into the game - but this is how we think John Mousinho will go.
9. RW Callum Lang
Welcome back Langy! Pompey have to be certain he's ready to return at full throttle and the suggeston is he's good for 50-55 minutes. Has to fill the problem position on the right flank. | Pro Sports Images
10. ACM Conor Chaplin
Getting Lang on the right flank frees up Conor Chaplin to return to the 10 role he knows best these days, if Pompey go with a 4-2-3-1 formation. Showing signs of greater impact before the international break, though John Swift has impressed in the same role in his best moments. Photo: Stephen Flynn
11. LW Josh Murphy
Promising words from John Mousinho on how the international break has been a benefit to Pompey's key man - can't be overstated how important Murphy is going to be in the coming weeks. Photo: Graham Hunt
12. CF Colby Bishop
Out of form and struggling before the international break, but Pompey now have the players who can run beyond Bishop in Murphy and Lang - and they also provide the supply he thrives on. Could be a pivotal moment in the striker's season. | Graham Hunt/ProSportsImages
