Team News

Portsmouth
Preston
  • John Mousinho could make two changes to the side that faced Plymouth with Terry Devlin and Mark O'Mahony stepping into the starting line-up.
  • Goalkeeper Will Norris remains a doubt for Pompey, while five players are confirmed absentees.
  • Liam Lindsay picked up a knock during the game against Sunderland and will likely be replaced by Jack Whatmough on Saturday.
  • No further changes are expected from Paul Heckingbottom this weekend.

Prediction

  • Portsmouth outshot Plymouth 14-10 at Home Park on Tuesday night but a late goal from Michael Obafemi proved to be the dagger as John Mousinho's men suffered a gut-wrenching 1-0 away defeat. Pompey are still searching for their first home league win of the season and are rooted to the bottom of the table.
  • Preston produced a strong performance at Deepdale on Wednesday night, holding league leaders Sunderland to a goalless draw in which they matched Regis Le Bris' side stride-for-stride. Despite the positive result, the visitors are now winless in four and are only clear of the relegation zone on goal difference.
