Duo back for Pompey

Midfielders Eyal Berkovic and Alexei Smertin return to Portsmouth’s squad at relegated Leicester having been rested for the midweek clash with Arsenal.

Full-back Petri Pasanen is still struggling with an ankle injury, however, and Linvoy Primus (hamstring) is out for the season so former Leicester player John Curtis looks set to keep his place.

Manager Harry Redknapp may rest goalkeeper Shaka Hislop who has come through the season with a groin strain, and give a rare start to Dutchman Harald Wapenaar.

Team (from): Hislop, Wapenaar, Curtis, Pasanen, de Zeeuw, Stefanovic, Taylor, Stone, Faye, Smertin, Berkovic, Hughes, Quashie, LuaLua, Yakubu, Sheringham, Harper, Duffy, Mornar.
