So another chance for Portsmouth to get back to back wins for the first time this season. We've been win-loss-win-loss lately which has been massively frustrating. We looked far from convincing for the first half and hour against Bristol Rovers, and with better creativity and more importantly without some epic defending by our boys we'd have been losing at half time. If we can keep it tight we have more than enough quality going forward as shown by us having 3 on target and 3 goals. Although we still managed to miss a couple of easy chances. Our biggest problem has been injuries at the back. We've had 5 different players at Left back and 3 at Right back. Looks like our first choice CH burgess didn't train today so I expect another change at the back with Thompson moving in and Talbot at RB. Happy that Eion Doyle looks injured for Oldham as he's in form and was pretty poor for us on loan, so would have been nailed on to score. Typical we play Oldham just as the sacking manager honeymoon period has started. We desperatly need to score the first goal to know Oldham back otherwise their confidence will soar and we'll struggle to get back into the game.
team likely to be
McGee
Talbot Thompson Clarke Donoahue
Lowe Close O'Keefe Kennedy
Pitman
Hawkins
If we score first and quite early I think we will roll over most teams. I'm going for another Pitman double and 3-1
