RECAP as 10-man Portsmouth deliver ruthless demolition of Accrington

Pompey aim to continue their fine form as Accrington Stanley arrive at Fratton Park.

Danny Cowley’s men look to make it five wins out of six against the side who wrecked their play-off hopes on the final day of last season.

Cowley may have a limited squad in terms of size, but he still has selection calls to make, particularly in defence and midfield.
