Lee Brown returns to the Pompey side to face Shrewsbury in today’s League One opener at Fratton Park.
He replaces Cam Pring at left-back in the only change from the side that beat Colchester in the EFL Trophy earlier in the week.
Alex Bass continues to be sidelined with an ankle injury, so American stopper Duncan Turnbull remains on the bench.
Subs: Turnbull, Bolton, Pring, Close, Cannon, Williams, Harrison
