Portsmouth head coach John Mousinho says Regan Poole will have a fitness test before their Championship match at Derby County on Friday.
The defender was substituted at half-time of Tuesday's 0-0 draw with Norwich because of a hamstring issue.
"Regan was out training today but did nothing more than the other lads as it was just a walk-through session and we're going to see how he is tomorrow," Mousinho told BBC Radio Solent.
"He's touch and go for the weekend but will have a fitness test and we'll see how we go.
"The big reason around bringing him off was so we didn't have any further damage because if we go into the second half and he ends up doing something that makes it worse, we'd really kick ourselves."
Mousinho has also said left-back Jacob Farrell is in the final stages of his rehabilitation from a knee injury before joining in with training.
The Australian has managed just one appearance since arriving from Australian side Central Coast Mariners in July.
