Portsmouth got a 1-0 win over Leeds United in their last game, with Colby Bishop scoring the decider. They have now won four of their last five games and their last three at home. Interestingly, they have lost just once in their last 12 games at home. Portsmouth sit 17th on the table with 42 points in 36 games, scoring 44 goals and conceding 57. However, Jordan Williams (muscle), Callum Lang (hamstring), Conor Shaughnessy (hamstring), Jacob Farrell (leg), and Ibane Bowat (unknown) are ruled out of this game due to injuries.

Plymouth suffered a 3-0 loss to Sheffield Wednesday in their last game to extend their winless run to six games. The Greens remain winless on the road this season, and relegation looks likely. They sit at the bottom of the table with 30 points in 36 games, scoring 36 goals and conceding 73. However, Adam Randell will continue to be out due to suspension, while Brendan Galloway and Muhamed Tijani will miss this game due to injuries.
