Danny Cowley’s men are looking to kickstart their play-off charge against their old foes, and, as usual there’s plenty of sub-plots going into the game.
We will be discussing all of those issues ahead of 3pm, with team news and reaction an hour before kick-off.
As ever, there will be video and more talking points dissected before we bring you live blow-by-blow commentary.

- Three changes for Pompey - Robertson, Hackett and Curtis in for Ogilvie, Brown and Hirst. Ogilvie has a nose injury and hasn’t trained. Bass not in squad as he gets set for loan exit.
- Embleton 1-0 (40min)
Jacobs with more quality as he charges forward and takes aim from 25 yards. Hoffman holds his effort, ‘we’ve had a shot’ sing the Pompey fans.
