Line-up questions
Looks like Pompey continuing with wing-backs. If that is the case the best bet is for Michael Jacobs to drop into midfield, as he did for long periods at Oxford. That would mean Carter, Raggett and Ogilvie at the back with Hume and Romeo wing-backs. That would leave Thompson and Jacobs in the middle with Curtis behind Hirst and Walker leading the line.
