We will be discussing all of those issues ahead of 3pm, with team news and reaction an hour before kick-off.

Key Events
- 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)
What a run from Jacobs as he powers past the red and white shirts. It looks as if he’s going to go all the way until he’s crowded out at the depth. More attacking quality there than we’ve seen from Pompey all half.
Harness runs at Evan and the Sunderland man gets the luck as the ball hits his heels without him knowing much about it.
