Pompey will be looking to break their goaless duck at Fratton tomorrow against a Spurs side without a win away from home so far in the Premiership.

Vital Quotes:

Harry for England can take a back seat now, that boat has sailed, now its back to the matter of addressing our goalless streak at Fratton, all this against a side with a clean sheet record like a small child with gastroenteritis.

Pompey Team News:

Sean Davis is fit again after hamstring trouble, but has Pedro Mendes done enough to keep him out?

Jamie Ashdown should return to the bench after a hamstring injury of his own.

Player to watch: Kranjcar

I am not sue who Paul would have said as I am not quite sure who ‘G’ was… But Kranjcar has been a different class this season ans all seems to be going through him – I expect the same tomorrow.

Spurs Team News:

Spurs have a few long term injuries Anthony Gardner, Ricardo Rocha and Benoit Assou-Ekotto – Gareth Bale has just joined them.

Ledley King is not quite ready to return and Robbie Keane is out through suspension.

Player to watch: Defoe

Again I am not sue who Paul would have said as I am not quite sure who ‘GH’ was… But as much as I wanted to say Didier Zokora after his ‘antics’ at White Hart Lane last season the fella who I still think could come to Pompey could be the one to watch if he plays.

Match Facts & Stats

Spurs have won 4 and drawn 1 of the last 5 league meeting between the sides but in the premier league we have a 2-1 win advantage over them at the Fortress – with the other a draw.

Ref Watch:

Chris Foy – not one of my favourites but are any of them…

Match Prediction:

So long as Pompey beat Spurs I could not care less what the score is, although I will be delighted to beat them – put your predictions here.

Next Fixtures:

We will be looking to keep the trend going of winning at grounds we cannot usually win at when we go to Anfield next weekend.
