That will see both sides ditch their home shirts for the Boxing Day game at Fratton Park to raise awareness of homelessness in the UK and help raise money for Shelter.

So Shelter’s frontline services are working harder than ever to help people find and keep a home this Christmas, but they can’t do it alone.
That’s why Pompey and the Us have shown their support towards a unique campaign that will see both sides wearing their third kits when Oxford visit PO4 on December 26, in support of #NoHomeKit.
Whether watching from the terraces or gathered round the living room TV, football understands what home means.
