All you need to know about League Two clash
There will be plenty of reunions when Accrington visit Fratton Park this weekend.
Blues boss Paul Cook and his assistant Leam Richardson both played for, coached and managed the Lancashire outfit.
Winger Kal Naismith was signed from Stanley over the summer, while Gary Roberts spent almost two years there earlier in his career.
But the quarter will be hoping to upset their former side by claiming three points and preserving Pompey’s unbeaten league record.
Accrington took four points off the Blues last term, with a 1-1 draw at the Crown Ground following their 3-2 triumph at Fratton Park.
That was the only time they have ever beaten Pompey, who have won three of their previous seven meetings.
TEAM NEWS
Paul Cook has an almost fully-fit squad to choose from, with Jack Whatmough (knee) the only player sidelined.
Accrington will make plenty of changes from their Johnstone’s Paint Trophy defeat during the week, with the likes of Jason Mooney, Matt Crooks and Josh Windass all expected to return.
