VITAL PREVIEW: Portsmouth
Swindon Town who are winless in 3 league matches, make the journey south this evening to take on financially stricken Portsmouth.
Vital Quotes:
"I will always thank the club and everyone at the club at the time for what happened in my early days at Portsmouth, and those times have played a massive part in the player I am now.
"So for that reason I am looking forward to going back there now although I want to come away with the three points."
Swindon Town winger Matt Ritchie who previously played for Portsmouth.
Portsmouth Team News:
Midfielder Connor Clifford won't play after his loan from Chelsea was not extended. Kevin Long who is on loan from Burnley has a back injury and won't feature. Lubor Michalik the former Leeds and Carlisle centre back could make his Portsmouth debut.
Player to watch: Luke Rodgers
After failing to get a visa to remain with MLS side New York Red Bulls due to previous criminal convictions, Rodgers joined Pompey on trial in pre-season. Rodgers has always been a handful against Swindon Town.
Swindon Town Team News:
Town are currently on a winless run of 4 after losing to Preston North End, Oxford United, Leyton Orient and drawing with Carlisle at the weekend. James Collins could be set for a re-call whilst Alan Navarro has returned from a knee injury.
Player to watch: Troy Archibald-Henville
Troy Archibald-Henville has been praised heavily by Paolo Di Canio, and was back on the bench against Carlisle. Archibald-Henville could start alongside Alan McCormack.
Match Facts & Stats
The last time the two sides played was back in 2000 with Pompey winning 4-1 with Lee Bradbury scoring a hat trick for Pompey whilst Adrian Whitbread rounded off the scoring for the home side.
Match Prediction:
Swindon haven't been the best away from home this season so we will say a 2-2 draw despite Portsmouth's problems.
Next Fixtures:
Town return to League One action and welcome AFC Bournemouth to the County Ground Saturday at 3pm.
