Harry Redknapp, the Portsmouth manager, and his Cardiff City counterpart Dave Jones have named fully fit squads ahead of the FA Cup Final at Wembley.
Redknapp is missing only the cup-tied forward Jermain Defoe, and must decide whether to stick to a 4-4-2 formation or play with five in midfield. David James (calf) and Sol Campbell (hamstring) are fit to return and Kanu looks certain to lead the attack, possibly with John Utaka or Milan Baros in support.
David Nugent has recovered from a groin strain to join the squad while Papa Bouba Diop must wait to see if he regains his place in midfield after being left out last week against Fulham.
"Everyone's fit," Redknapp said. "But it's a difficult time as I may have to disappoint one of two lads who have played in the other rounds. I knew my Wembley team a couple of weeks ago but there have been one or two question marks since then, which I think I've solved again, but I don't want to show my hand to Cardiff too early."
"It's great for Portsmouth to be getting to a Cup Final. Compared with where we were two years ago and five years ago, it's amazing."
Jones, the Cardiff manager, must decide whether to recall Robbie Fowler, who has recovered from a hip injury. However, it seems likely that Jones will name the former Liverpool forward on the bench at best. Paul Parry came through his return from a hamstring problem against Barnsley a fortnight ago and will hope to be involved after missing the semi-final.
