Portsmouth welcome Sunderland to Fratton Park for Barclays Women's Championship action this Sunday.

Off the back of a 2-0 victory away at Sheffield United last time out, the Blues' first league win of the campaign, Jay Sadler's side prepare to host 6th place Sunderland in PO4.

These 2 sides have met twice already this season, playing out a 2-2 draw in the reverse league fixture up in the North East back in December before The Black Cats defeated Pompey 2-0 at Westleigh Park on February 9th in The FA Cup.

With Sheffield United not playing this weekend, a win would see the Blues lift themselves out of the relegation zone with just 4 games remaining, however The Blades would then have a game in hand.

Blackburn Rovers are 9th with 7 points so defeat away at London City Lionesses, coupled with a Portsmouth win, would elevate Jay Sadler's side up to 9th and leapfrog 2 of their relegation-threatened rivals.

Ahead of the big game at Fratton Park, the Pompey head coach sat down with Pompey Live and The Football Hour host Jake Smith:
