RECAP as Colby Bishop secures three points for Portsmouth against Cambridge

John Mousinho’s men will be looking to cap-off an excellent week in the league with three points at the struggling U’s.

The Blues comfortably saw past Cheltenham 4-0 last Saturday before a 3-1 success against play-off hopefuls Bolton at Fratton Park on Tuesday.

The head coach was cautious over Ronan Curtis’ availability but isn’t expecting any other injury issues.

With a nine-point week the aim for Pompey, they face an out-of-form Cambridge side who sit 23rd in League One and have won just one of their past 11 league outings.

He returns!!! Tom Lowery comes on for the first time since November and is greeted with plenty of cheers from the Pompey fans. He replaces Jacobs.

It’s looking better for Pompey. Good passing play down the right led to a ball in finding Scarlett. Despite bringing the ball down, he was unable to produce an effort on goal.
