Pompey don't care where they play - winning is on their mind
Friday, 12th Oct 2018 10:20 by pompey-fans.com staff

Pompey have been League One's awayday kings so far this season but are under no illusions they will need to be at their best to keep up their record on the road at AFC Wimbledon.

Kingsmeadow has not always been a happy hunting ground for the Blues in recent seasons and Kenny Jackett expects a tight game at the compact stadium this weekend.

But he says his players are quite happy playing anywhere - home or away - at the moment as they approach all games in a positive frame of mond.

Jackett told www.portsmouthfc.co.uk@ 'There’s no difference for us — home or away — in terms of what we do during the week. But I think perhaps the mentality of our opposition can be different and of course that will affect things.

'We have had two very good performances at home against Oxford and Plymouth, and I always think that home form is easier to get right than away form. We’ve shown discipline and character on the road and we always set up in an attempt to win the game, wherever we’re playing.

'It was a frustrating afternoon for us against Gillingham last week because we were in control, but didn’t turn our possession into shots. But we were pleased with Tuesday night at Crawley night — winning is winning and you want to experience it as much as you can.

'There’s no doubt, though, that the league is our priority and it’s a big game for us on Saturday. I’m confident we’ll have the right attitude.'

Pompey will be without injured duo David Wheeler and Andre Green at Wimbledon, while Ronan Curtis is on duty with Ireland.
