0' In just a few seconds Fratton Park will turn into a battlefield for Portsmouth FC and Leicester City FC.
5' Portsmouth FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Leicester City FC backline.
8' Time for substitution for Portsmouth FC. Keshi Anderson is replaced by Adrian Segecic.
13' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.

37' Leicester City FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
42' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Portsmouth FC that had 378 games and scored 534 goals.
47' Portsmouth FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
52' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Marlon Pack suffering a number of foals already.
57' It’s high time John Mousinho made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
62' It looks like no one’s ball. Leicester City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.

76' A tactical swap from Leicester City FC — Jordan Ayew on, Bobby Reid off on 76 minutes.
77' Another substitution for Portsmouth FC to replace Adrian Segecic by Jacob Brown on 77 minute.
82' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
87' Supporters expect more eagerness from Regan Poole, as he is very good at scoring at Fratton Park with 2 goals in the last 2 games.

90' Another change for Leicester City FC made on 90 minute. Ricardo Pereira leaves to be changed by Olabade Aluko.
