Team news from Alexandra Stadium
Kal Naismith starts for Pompey at left-back against Crewe at Alexandra Stadium this afternoon.
He replaces the injured Enda Stevens in the only change from the side that drew with Carlisle in the last league outing.
That means Michael Smith continues to lead the line, ahead of an attacking three of Carl Baker, Gary Roberts and Milan Lalkovic.
Pompey: Forde; Talbot, Whatmough, Burgess, Naismith; Rose, Doyle (c); Baker, Roberts, Lalkovic; Smith
Subs: O’Brien, Buxton, Barton, Bennett, Main, Chaplin, Hunt
