Portsmouth are a team looking in fine form at this stage of the season. With Liverpool and Everton clashing tomorrow, it leaves them a good opportunity to close the gap with those 2 teams, with a shot at Europe.

In the fixture earlier in the season, it was a clear victory for Pompey with a 2-0 victory. Pompey have been in great form off late, winning 4 out of their last 5, just losing the one game and also at home, they are also good winning 4 out of 5, drawing the other fixture.

Sol Campbell and Jermain Defoe return to the squad which should be a boost for Harry Redknapp, who needs both of their contributions at either end of the pitch. In addition, Hreidarsson and Aubey face late fitness test, but Diarra will be out for sure.

Wigan are finding it increasingly difficult to find the victories to stay up in the league, and this weekend, could be the one, where it seals the deal in terms of their motivation and drive to try and still win their relegation battle.

Brown, Palacios and Koumas are all suspended for this game, but Bruce has cover at the back as Kirkland should make a return for Wigan between the sticks

Pompey to get all 3 points.
