Arsenal Visit Pompey And May Lose.
THE
VILLA AT HOME
HE Arsenal are visiting Pompey to-morrow, and there is every reason to believe that the High- bury aide will receive their firat check since the Villa lowered their colours.
Portsmouth have only been beaten once at home, and will not be over-awed by the Arsenal's magnificent away record-the Lon-
don team have garnered 13 points in 8 matches.
