In the last match, they lost in an away match against Sheffield United, by (2‑1).

For the league, Portsmouth won 20 points out of 30 possible points, after 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 17 of their 31 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 3. In the last 15 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 14 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

The hosts are expected to line up in a 4-3-3 system, with Josh Murphy, Colby Bishop, and Callum Lang forming the attacking trio. When going forward, Portsmouth tend to exploit the wide areas, making use of the speed and depth provided by their wingers. For this match, Regan Poole, Paddy Lane, Kusini Yengi, Mark O’Mahony, Jacob Farrell, and Ibane Bowat are all unavailable due to injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Nicolas Schmid, Connor Ogilvie, Conor Shaughnessy, Zak Swanson, Rob Atkinson, Matt Ritchie, Andre Dozzell, Isaac Hayden, Colby Bishop, Callum Lang, Josh Murphy.
