Midfield problems for Perrin
Portsmouth’s Salif Diao is out with hamstring trouble and fellow midfielder Richard Hughes is rated 50-50 with a groin injury for the home match against Charlton.
Striker Svetoslav Todorov could make his first Premiership start in 19 months after a late check, having being laid low by a virus.
Manager Alain Perrin is likely to name Collins Mbesuma on the bench in the continued absence of malaria-affected Lomana Lualua.
Team from: Ashdown, Priske, Stefanovic, O’Brien, Griffin, Viafara, O’Neil, Taylor, Robert, Vukic, Todorov, Silva, Vignal, Mbesuma, Hughes, Songo’o, Karadas, Westerveld.
