Pompey are again looking to bring on 11 substitues around the 60-minute mark, as they did at Gosport last night.

Toby Steward, Zak Swanson, Jack Sparkes, Ryley Towler, Ben Stevenson and Paddy Lane were not involved at Privett Park.

Destiny Ojo and Harry Jewitt-White, who both scored against Gosport after coming on as substitutes, start against the Hawks.

As does another substitute Dan Murray, who impressed John Mousinho with his cameo off the bench.

Dan Gifford on the bench for the Hawks. Currently trialling with them as he bids to earn a contract following his Pompey release.

Great to see Pompey players like Marlon Pack, Colby Bishop and Kusini Yengi signing plenty of autographs for the kids.

Fans still queuing up outside to get in. Hawks very happy with this attendance.
