Match verdict

Exeter have beaten Ipswich, Oxford and West Ham Under-21s in the EFL Trophy this season but they have their work cut out against holders Portsmouth.

Kenny Jackett's Pompey have been imperious at Fratton Park this season and should have too much for the Sky Bet League Two promotion-hunters.

Team news

Portsmouth
Kenny Jackett will be picking from the same group of players available for Saturday's league win over Shrewsbury so Andy Cannon (glute) will not be rushed back into action.

Exeter
Young midfielder Jack Sparkes (knee) is out for the season but the Grecians have no fresh injury concerns.

Key stat

Portsmouth have won 11 of their last 12 home matches.
