After picking up their first win on the road for over a year on Tuesday night, Dons will look to make it two in a row against Portsmouth at Fratton Park on Saturday.

Neither side have started League One with much vigour, with Dons still seeking their first win as they dropped to the bottom of the pile last Saturday, while Portsmouth only landed their first three points of the campaign beating Burton 4-2 at the weekend.

Both sides were also winners on Tuesday night in EFL Trophy action.

The stats do not weigh in Dons’ favour though. Dons have never won at Fratton Park, and most recently suffered a 3-1 defeat there last February.

The bookmakers have Dons at 9/2 to take their first win there, with Pompey 13/20 and 13/5 the draw.

Referee Lee Swabey will take charge of the game. In five games, he has booked 11 players this season. He was last sen by Dons fans in the 1-0 defeat to Ipswich Town in September 2019. Paul Lister and Adam Ricketts will run the lines, with Fourth Official Leigh Crowhurst.
