Portsmouth

Thomas Waddingham was close to returning after ankle surgery earlier this month and could be available for the Millwall game, offering Portsmouth another option after a long absence. Zak Swanson is also back in line to start at right-back after missing the 1-1 draw at Wolverhampton Wanderers, when Terry Devlin made his first start in the role.

Nicolas Schmid is expected to continue in goal ahead of Daniel Bielica after starting four of Portsmouth's last five matches. Marlon Pack and Ryan Kavuma-McQueen are both back in line to start after being used only as substitutes against Wolves, with Kavuma-McQueen setting up two goals in his last five appearances.

Millwall

Filip Marschall will miss out in goal after damaging ankle ligaments against Lincoln City, a game that also saw Romain Esse make his first-team return from an ankle injury as a substitute. Max Crocombe is in line to deputise between the posts, while Taïryk Arconte remains doubtful because of an ankle problem, having started three of the last five matches.

Tristan Crama is set to keep his place at right-back after making his first start of the recent run against Lincoln, with Jordi Osei-Tutu having missed that game. Mark Sykes and Luke Cundle continue to compete for a role further forward, with Lyndon Dykes and Camiel Neghli, who has scored twice and set up another in his last five appearances, continuing in attack.
