Rising Tottenham Hotspur prospect gets his chance at MK Dons as Portsmouth academy talent with future in doubt makes bench

Harvey White comes in for Ben Close at Stadium MK, with the midfielder missing out with a groin injury.

White is favoured over Andy Cannon who stays on the bench because his playing time is limited as he nurses a back issue.

Academy prospect, Alfie Stanley, whose Pompey future is shrouded in doubt is on the bench.

There’s a space for out-of-favour Paul Downing on the bench, who comes into the 18.

Pompey: MacGillivray, Johnson, Whatmough, Raggett, Daniels, White, Naylor, Harness, Williams, Curtis, Marquis. Subs: Ward, Nicolaisen, Bolton, Downing, Cannon, Byers, Stanley
