O’Mahony will now be assessed by the club's medical department ahead of their home clash against Bristol City on December 7.

Portsmouth boss John Mousinho said: "I don’t really know how bad it is at the moment. Mark didn’t look great, but I don’t think it’s too bad. It’s just a whack to the hip.

"He wasn’t moving particularly well, there was ice on his hip after he came off. I didn't really have a chance to see how he was after the game.

"So that was a frustrating one.”
