The Blues will be looking to bounce back from last weekend’s disappointing 2-0 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Kieran McKenna’s side have had a slow start to the campaign and sit five places behind John Mousinho’s men this - winning just one of the opening six games of the season.
With injuries piling up at Fratton Park, here’s how we predict Pompey to line-up against Ipswich Town on Saturday afternoon.

5. CB: Josh Knight
Knight could be handed his first start for the Blues following his summer move from Hannover 96. With Shaughnessy’s hamstring injury set to keep him sidelined, the 28-year-old is likely to come into the side. | Graham Hunt/ProSportsImages
6. LB: Connor Ogilvie
Despite his injury against Southampton, Ogilvie was fit enough to return to the squad last weekend. Mousinho’s first choice at left-back and that looks to continue at Portman Road. Photo: Steve Bailey
7. CM: Andre Dozzell
Like many, Dozzell was unable to make an impact against Sheffield Wednesday despite an outstanding display against Southampton. Will be hoping to establish himself in the engine once again this weekend against Ipswich. | Stephen Flynn
8. CM: Luke Le Roux
The central midfielder could be another to be handed his full league debut for the Blues, having made four appearances from the bench so far. Le Roux looked bright against the Owls, with Mousinho admitting the South African international is ready to start. | Jeff Mood/ProSportsImages
