The Pilgrims arrive at PO4 fighting for their Championship lives rooted to the bottom of the table, with a huge amount on the game for Miron Muslic’s side.

LIVE Pompey v Plymouth

It gets worse for Pompey as Pack is completely exposed by a ball behind him and Hardie is away. Poole does everything to get across but can’t quite get there as the striker sweeps home his side’s second.

Second effort on goal from Murphy as his angled effort’s palmed away by Hazard.

It’s the visitors with the breakthrough. Pompey opened up down their right flank and the ball is worked to Bundu, who slots a calm finished past the exposed Schmid.

Murphy superb track back and deny Sorinola who then rolls around poleaxed.

Gyabi being treated

Lovely cross Murphy and Bishop is there for the final touch but Pleguezuelo gets a key foot in. Corner comes in and Hazard pushes Aouchiche’s effort away.

Not going to be easy

Plymouth dogged and hard to break down, Pompey patient but anyone thinking this is will be easy is mistaken.

Dozzell runs in behind the Plymouth defence and draws a foul from Katic by the corner flag.

Plymouth playing a 3-4-2-1 but the wing-backs sitting in effectively making it a back five. Won’t be easy to break down.

Dozzell lobs a shot over from the edge of the box after Ritchie’s corner.

Poole gifts the ball to Bundu who lobs a 45-yard shot past the post.

Aouchiche's impressive continues as he angles a shot just past the upright from outside the box.
