Kenny Jackett has resisted the urge to bring back fit-again pair Jack Whatmough and Anton Walkes into his side.

Instead, Whatmough hasn't made the Fratton Park squad, with in-form Christian Burgess retaining his place alongside Matt Clarke.

Meanwhile, Walkes comes onto the bench, with Danny Rose dropping out altogether.

Pompey's in-form triumvirate Jamal Lowe, Oli Hawkins and Ronan Curtis remain in Jackett's starting line-up as they seek to remain top of the table.

Pompey: MacGillivray, N.Thompson, Burgess, Clarke, Brown, Naylor, Close, Lowe, Evans, Curtis, Hawkins.

Subs: McGee, Wheeler, Mason, B.Thompson, Pitman, Walkes, Haunstrup.
