Apologies for so much south coast stuff this week, we've already had Brighton & Southampton, but this is irresistible, a real fairy tale tie for little Postsmouth drawn away to one of the 2 big south coast teams.
Clearly, Brighton will put the minnows in their place, but there's always the dream that a tiny club can beat a proper club.
Brighton v Portsmouth @ 7.45pm
Here's the magnificent Amex Stadium, home of Brighton & Hove Albion, with easy access from the adjacent A27.

In contrast to the ultra-modern Amex Stadium, here's Fratton Park, the home of Portsmouth.

Brighton Manager Graham Potter;
Here's a Match Preview from our cousins at Betfair;
Brighton v Portsmouth Match Preview
The current Pompey Manager is Kenny Jackett. I wish him well, he's dropped down from managing big teams like Millwall & Rotherham to try his hand at lower league stuff.
Embarrassingly, Brighton thrashed Portsmouth 7-1 in this recent encounter;
