Match Preview: Yeovil vs Pompey

[Ben Morris]

Pompey start their Johnstone's Paint Trophy campaign with a trip to Huish park on Tuesday night to face League One outfit Yeovil Town.

The Glovers were relegated from the Championship after finishing rock bottom last term.

Gary Johnson's side have only won once this season, however they are unbeaten in their last three games.

Pompey reached the area quarter-final in 2013/14 beating Torquay and Oxford before losing to Newport.

In the event of a draw, the tie will go straight to penalties.

Team News

Patrick Agyemang, Michael Poke and Alex Wynter are all available for selection after returning from injury.

But Jack Whatmough (ankle) is a doubt having only just returned to light training, while Ben Chorley suffered a dead leg against Newport.

Simon Gillett, who had a pre-season trial with the Blues in 2012, is out injured for Yeovil, but Jack Price could feature after arriving on an emergency loan from Wolves.
