Lualua a fitness doubt for Pompey

Striker Lomana Lualua (foot) faces a late fitness test to see whether he misses his third successive game for Portsmouth in their must-win home clash against relegated Sunderland.

Defenders Dejan Stefanovic (thigh) and Andy O’Brien (hamstring) will have painkillers in a bid to return while midfielder Gary O’Neil (ankle) and Pedro Mendes – who missed Monday’s defeat at Charlton will a thigh strain – should be fit.
