This game shouldn't be a dull affair with both sides having
plenty to play for; Pompey are fighting hard to avoid relegation
and haven't lost in four games whilst Arsenal still believe
they can claim fourth spot and the lost Champions League place
despite losing at Old Trafford at the weekend. Portsmouth
have finally rediscovered team spirit under Harry Redknapp
and should really be judged on current form but though they
have had a poor season they have only lost 6 of 15 home games.
Arsenal have been in a rich vein of form lately, excepting
the United defeat, but overall their away record domestically
has been poor with only 4 wins from 16 games; will Wenger
elect to start with Henry, Reyes or even a fit Campbell. Pompey
can't escape the relegation spots with only a draw but they
can move up a place and give Birmingham something to think
about; a point would be a great result against the Gunners.
