Key Events

  • Four changes as new boys start before Pompey penalty appeal ifn
  • Walker, Carter, Brown and Thompson in for Freeman, Curtis, Williams and Hackett

How they’ll line up

Looks like a continuation of a 3-4-1-2 formation for Pompey. New boy Carter on the right of a back three with Raggett and Ogilvie. Romeo and Brown the wing-backs with Thompson and Morrell centrally. Then it appears to be Harness behind Hirst and debut-making Walker.
