Mansfield v Portsmouth preview
Thursday 17 March 2016 17:29, UK
Emmanuel Dieseruvwe is expected to make his Mansfield debut when they host Portsmouth in Sky Bet League Two.
The 6ft 5in forward bolsters an attack which is missing Adi Yussuf, who is still to serve four more games of his suspension for urinating behind a stand.
The Stags have failed to score in their last three games, which has seen Adam Murray's men fall five points adrift of the play-off places.
Murray could recall winger Colin Daniel or striker Chris Beardsley as he looks to solve the goalscoring problem.
Portsmouth will be without winger Gary Roberts due to a one-match suspension.
Roberts, 31, was sent off after receiving two yellow cards in Pompey's 3-0 loss to Newport last weekend as the team, who sit sixth in the table, aim for automatic promotion.
Manager Paul Cook has no fresh injury worries but Gareth Evans is expected to return after limping off with an ankle injury last weekend.
Goalkeeper Brian Murphy remains on the sidelines with a calf problem.
