 Portsmouth go in search of their fifth consecutive victory with Pedro Mendes back in the squad, but fellow midfielders Sean Davis and Richard Hughes are unavailable due to suspension.
Harry Redknapp is also likely to be without strikers David Nugent (groin) and Kanu (knee) as they look to break into the top four for the first time this season.
West Ham are still without Scott Parker, who has a knee ligament injury. And he joins Freddie Ljungberg, Dean Ashton, Bobby Zamora, Kieron Dyer, Julien Faubert, James Collins and Calum Davenport on the sideline.
Alan Curbishley is expected to stick with the players on duty against Sunderland last weekend, with Craig Bellamy looking to lead again up front.
