Pompey turn their attention back to League One this lunchtime as they make the short trip to Wycombe.

After a two-week break, which included victories in the Papa John’s Trophy and the FA Cup, the Blues are looking to rise into the play-offs with three points at Adams Park.

Danny Cowley’s men are without a victory in their last four games in the league after four successive draws and have since slipped out of the top six.

The head coach delivered some positive injury news around Michael Jacobs, Tom Lowery and Louis Thompson but the trio aren’t expected to feature.

Dane Scarlett and Owen Dale are set to return after they were unavailable for the FA Cup contest last week after they were refused permission by their parent clubs.

You can follow the action with team news, build-up and video before live commentary when we get under way from 12.30pm.

Key Events

  • Blues return to League One action after Cup break.
  • Dane Scarlett and Owen Dale come back in after missing FA Cup victory.
  • Mehmeti fires hosts ahead early.

The Pompey forward is up but it’s walking gingerly. Fingers crossed he can carry on, although my hands are in gloves because it is very cold here.

Brief stoppage here as Bishop is down with a head injury in the Pompey box.

Heavy touch by Mingi, he losses the ball and gives away a foul on Obita.

Pompey all over the place at the back. The ball finds Scowen 25-yards but his effort is high and wide.

Loose clearance from Raggett, he tries to clear it but it’s cleared awkwardly for a throw.

Great challenge by Mingi to deny McCleary’s run into the box. He’s looked solid early on.

Pmpey holding the ball early on, Scarlett tries a pass out to Dale but it’s just a bit loose and the hosts have it.

We’re under way at Adams Park.

Pompey have sold out the away end and are making all the noise here ahead of kick-off.

Here come the teams. It’s very cold here.
