Skipper Stefanovic back for Pompey
Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp will recall skipper Dejan Stefanovic, midfielder Gary O’Neil and forward Laurent Robert to his squad for the home clash with fellow strugglers Fulham after they missed the 4-0 midweek defeat at Arsenal.
Defenders Linvoy Primus (groin) and Salif Diao (hamstring) are still not fit to return, but Diao’s injury could turn out a boost for Redknapp as the player has not been selected for Senegal’s African Nations Cup squad next month. Striker Vincent Pericard (thigh) is another who will miss out.
Team (from): Ashdown, Griffin, O’Brien, Priske, Stefanovic, Taylor, Robert, O’Neil, Hughes, Viafara, Cisse, LuaLua, Todorov, Silva, Karadas, Skopelitis, Mornar, Vukic, Westerveld.
