Bishop to Score Anytime

Portsmouth vs Morecambe Lineups and Team News

Portsmouth

Portsmouth dropped precious points last weekend when drawing 1-1 away vs MK Dons. It started well for Portsmouth but Morrell’s red card late in the first half complicated things and led to the draw.

The key playmaker Morrell now misses suspended. Also, his teammates had to work extra hard on Good Friday and fatigue could prove to be an issue for them now. At least of the 4 injured players centre-back Swanson is the only important one.

Morecambe

Morecambe lost 1-3 at home against leaders Plymouth on Good Friday. Once again outplayed in the later stages with the Shrimps low on morale after going winless in 9 and pretty much giving up the hope that they could survive.

Morecambe have a big squad to pick from so some rotation can be expected. There are no major injury issues in the squad either with all of the 3 doubtful players with a chance to recover on time. If centre-back Bedeau and the key playmaker Shaw are passed fit they should start too.
