Ronan Curtis returns against MK Dons as Portsmouth seek maiden League One win
Ronan Curtis returns to Pompey’s League One side for this afternoon’s encounter with MK Dons.
The Irishman was dropped for last weekend’s trip to Burton, a fixture which produced an impressive 4-2 triumph for Kenny Jackett’s side.
However, after netting twice at Southend in the week for a much-changed Blues side in the EFL Trophy, Curtis has been rewarded.
He comes in for Ryan Williams and could well resume left-wing duties, with Michael Jacobs switched over to the right.
That also means no start for Rasmus Nicolaisen, who made his Pompey debut in that 3-0 win at Southend on Tuesday night.
Instead Jackett retains Sean Raggett and Jack Whatmough as his central-defensive pairing.
Rock bottom MK Dons include recent recruit Cameron Jerome on the bench for today’s Fratton Park encounter.
Pompey: MacGillivray, Johnson, Whatmough, Raggett, Brown, Naylor, Morris, Jacobs, Harness, Curtis, Harrison.
Subs: Bass, Close, Marquis, Nicolaisen, Pring, Cannon, Williams.
