All you need to know about League Two clash

The weather forecast suggests it will be a sunny afternoon at Fratton Park when Yeovil visit Pompey on Saturday.





It is a far cry from when the sides met at Huish Park for a goalless stalemate in their final fixture of 2016.





Dense fog enveloped the Somerset venue that evening and it was a surprise that the game went ahead, with the conditions making it impossible to see one from end of the ground to the other.





Pompey fans will also be hoping to see a bright performance on the pitch and their team move another step closer to automatic promotion.





Paul Cook’s men have a six-point lead over Stevenage – who head the chasing pack – with just six games remaining.





Their next opponents look to safe from the drop in 19th position, even if that is not yet a mathematical certainty.





Yeovil have won just twice in the league since the turn of the year and have drawn 10 of their 17 fixtures in 2017.





They have only visited Fratton Park on two previous occasions, taking four points from those matches.









TEAM NEWS

Eoin Doyle (groin) and Noel Hunt (shoulder) are both missing for Pompey, while Carl Baker (hamstring) is a doubt.





Yeovil are without the suspended Ben Whitfield, but Otis Khan could feature after recovering from an ankle problem.
