It’s been a strong start to the season at Fratton Park, with Pompey sitting just two points outside of the play-offs.
John Mousinho’s men are in the midst of a two-week international break before a hectic run begins against Bolton Wanderers on November 21.
Pompey are then in action nine times before the turn of the year, which includes a busy festive schedule.
The head coach is currently without nine members of his squad through injury and was left with 21 fit pros for their 2-1 defeat to Stoke City last time out.
We’ve taken a look at the injury latest and expected return dates of those absentees.

5. Colby Bishop
Still no time frame on the striker's return from a knee injury. Bishop picked up the setback in the warm-ups ahead of the Blues' 1-0 win at Norwich City last month. Mousinho is yet to pencil in the 30-year-old's comeback. Expected return: N/A. | Jason Brown
6. Mark Kosznovszky
There is light starting to appear at the end of the tunnel for Kosznovszky, who is ramping up his return from a serious knee injury. The midfielder has been sidelined since December 2025 after suffering ACL and MCL damage in the 2-1 win over Charlton Athletic. Mousinho is looking to keep the 24-year-old in his ranks during the second half of the season, instead of sending him out on loan. Expected return: December/January. | Getty Images

7. Marko Milovanovic
The striker suffered a costly injury blow in the Blues' 3-1 win over Swansea last week. Mousinho was preparing to withdraw Marezi mid-way through the second half, with Thomas Waddingham waiting on the touchline. But when chasing a ball forwards from Terry Devlin, the £3m pulled up with a quad problem. Marezi is set to miss up to three months of action, according to the head coach. Expected return: February 2027. | Jason Brown

8. Connor Ogilvie
Ogilvie remains another member of Mousinho's squad who is yet to feature in any capacity this term. The left-back underwent two knee surgeries in the summer but is still a significant period away from a return. The Blues boss explained earlier this month that Pompey are managing his return week by week and doesn't want to put a time frame on his comeback. Expected return: N/A. | Getty Images
