Pompey poised to field new striker

Portsmouth include new signing Emmanuel Olisadebe in their squad and have Richard Hughes back from suspension for the trip to Ipswich in the FA Cup.

However, the signing of Zimbabwe striker Benjani Mwaruwari from Auxerre appears to have come too late to make him eligible for the third-round tie at Portman Road.

Goalkeeper Jamie Ashdown is still out with a hamstring injury.

Team (from): Westerveld, Stefanovic, O’Brien, Priske, Taylor, Hughes, O’Neil, Diao, Silva, Karadas, Olisadebe, Todorov, Cisse, Viafara, Lualua, Griffin, Mornar, Guatelli.
