Shots sweating on several

Aldershot boss Andy Scott has a number of injury concerns ahead of the eagerly-awaited FA Cup replay against Hampshire neighbours Portsmouth.

Defender Mark Phillips is doubtful with a quad problem while midfielders Jaydon Gibbs and Jordan Roberts have been carrying hamstring injuries.

Striker Josh Scott could also miss out with the foot injury which has sidelined him for the last three matches.

Damon Lathrope (groin) and Anthony Tonkin (calf) are long-term injury absentees.

Portsmouth can welcome back Paul Robinson as they go in search of a first win in the cup since 2010, the year they were beaten by Chelsea in the final.

On-loan Millwall defender Robinson missed Saturday's 3-0 defeat at Plymouth through suspension after he was sent off during the original 2-2 draw against the Shots a week earlier.

But key midfielder James Dunne has a knee injury and is likely to be unavailable until January.

Defenders Danny East (groin) and Adam Webster (knee) remain sidelined along with midfielder Wes Fogden and striker Tom Craddock (both knee).
