Portsmouth manager Paul Cook has no fresh injury worries as his side welcome Oxford to Fratton Park.
Pompey sit four points below the automatic promotion places with two games in hand and Matt Clarke, whose loan has been extended, is available for selection after being ineligible to play in their FA Cup replay win against Ipswich as he was cup-tied.
Out-of-favour midfielder Nigel Atangana left the club this week, joining Leyton Orient for an undisclosed fee on Wednesday after Cook told him he was not included in his future plans.
Danny Hollands remains a long-term absentee after breaking his leg in the 2-2 draw with Ipswich earlier in the month.
Oxford will be without striker Ryan Taylor after he was ruled out for at least six weeks with a groin injury on Friday.
The 27-year-old twisted awkwardly during last weekend's defeat to Bristol Rovers and will be out until at least March.
Oxford boss Michael Appleton has no other injury worries ahead of journey south as they face a Portsmouth side just four points below them.
Speaking about Taylor, Appleton said: "I don't know the exact length of the injury but the reality is we will be without him for a longer period and the thinking is that now is the time to maybe freshen things up."
