Portsmouth v Exeter: TV channel, kick-off, streaming and what time coverage starts of the EFL Trophy semi-final

The Blues welcome Exeter to Fratton Park in the EFL Trophy semi-final (7.45pm kick-off).

Kenny Jackett’s men bid to become the first club in history to successfully defend the silverware, after beating Sunderland on penalties last season.

First they’ll have to ensure they avoid a banana skin against the Grecians, however.

Pompey are favourites to book a place at the national stadium for the second time in as many campaigns.

The Blues sit sixth in League One, while Exeter are second in League Two.

They're playing for the right to face either Newport or Salford - who play on Wednesday – in the final on Sunday, April 5.

Tickets are still available for the game, but here's how members of the Fratton faithful who aren’t attending can watch the encounter.
