Louis Thompson makes his full League One debut for Pompey in this evening’s clash with Cheltenham at Fratton Park.
He replaces the injured Ryan Tunnicliffe in one of two changes from the side that beat Bolton at the weekend.
The other switch also comes in the centre of midfield, with Shaun Williams dropping to the bench to make way for Joe Morrell.
