For them Nugent picked up a knock mid week and faces a fitness test but Utaka who missed their midweek cup game should be fit again. It now looks like Kanu won't play as he hasn't signed a new contract yet (later revealed by Sky that he has signed). They have the Cardiff side as 4-4-2 with Keogh up front with Bothroyd and Burke back on the bench - I think we'll go 4-5-1 again.
Koumas is described as "The one that got away" as apparently Cotterill was quite keen to sign him in the summer.
Cotterill very complimentary about the Cardiff side packed with pace and says we're favourites for the title and of course there's plenty on Bellamy - about his quality and the fact that he always scores at Fratton and they're urging the Portsmouth fans to back their side - they say they expect a full house but that would surprise me
