The race for the League One playoffs spot continues this weekend as Portsmouth welcomes rejuvenated Forest Green Fratton Park. The outcome of the fixture would be crucial for both sides.

Portsmouth are six points adrift of sixth-placed Derby County. The host would need to win this to keep their hopes alive. Last weekend’s draw against Port Vale at home was a big setback for John Mousinho’s team.

Forest Green, on the other hand, are rock bottom of the league. The Rovers have just twenty-six points throughout the campaign. Although Jordan Garrick’s first-half strike handed Sheffield Wednesday a shock defeat, the team’s chances of leaving the drop remain slim.

Portsmouth will be counting on Sean Raggett’s brilliance in the defence. The 29-year-old Englishman has been in good form this season. Clark Robertson is returning to full fitness, but there’s doubt he will be available for the game on Saturday.

Forest boss Duncan Ferguson brought significant changes to the team, including earning the win over title hopefuls Sheffield Wednesday.

Portsmouth doesn’t look easy as they are looking to return to the playoffs, but Duncan Ferguson is expected to go all out for the big points.
