Brett Pitman returns to the Pompey side to face Bradford at Fratton Park this afternoon.
The skipper has not started any of the past five games after undergoing surgery on both his nose and knee.
He replaces Oliver Hawkins up front in the only change from the side that were beaten at Blackburn last week.
