Barnsley vs Portsmouth Lineups and Team News
Barnsley
Barnsley failed to create enough chances on their visit to Bristol Rovers last Saturday and as a result, they drew 0-0. Defensively things looked solid, but for the second time in just the last 3 rounds Barnsley’s forward actions looked ineffective.
The options for rotation remain limited with 6 long-term absentees still filling the rehabilitation room. Among them is the main goalkeeper Collins. In his absence, Isted is grabbing his chance well and his displays in recent rounds had been solid.
Portsmouth
Portsmouth offered yet another very solid defensive display on Saturday when edging Cambridge 1-0. Top scorer Bishop (14 goals) scored the only goal, this being the second round in a row in which Bishop gets on the scoresheet. With only 1 goal conceded in the last 5 rounds and just 2 points dropped Portsmouth are just about keeping their slim promotion chances still alive.
Pompey remain without 5 long-term absentees. Among them are the main left-back Swanson and the important inner midfielder Pack. Midfielder Curtis could be back though, he missed the Saturday match due to a minor knock. Not many changes to the lineup are expected as the gaffer believes in not touching a winning squad.
