James missing for Portsmouth

James: Won't be risked

James is "still not fit" after two weeks out with a calf injury and manager Harry Redknapp admits there could still be a slight worry over him for next Saturday's FA Cup final. Jamie Ashdown is on standby.

Campbell has tight hamstrings and will not be risked if the problem worsens, but Noe Pamarot is ready to deputise after one game back in the reserves since damaging knee ligaments against Bolton in February.

Midfielders Sulley Muntari (rib), Pedro Mendes (hip) and winger John Utaka (ankle) are all available again after injuries.

Pompey (from): Ashdown, Johnson, Campbell, Pamarot, Distin, Hreidarsson, Diarra, Muntari, Mendes, Diop, Davis, Kranjcar, Utaka, Defoe, Baros, Kanu, Lauren, Nugent, Hughes, Begovic.
