Soccer Betting Lines

08/27/2008 - Portsmouth, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Portsmouth's Croatia international midfielder Niko Kranjcar is set to be sidelined for around three months after undergoing surgery on an ankle injury.

The 24-year-old went under the knife on Wednesday morning, having missed the 1-0 defeat at home to Manchester United on Monday evening.

Kranjcar is expected to be in plaster for around three weeks before starting his rehabilitation work.

Meanwhile, Pompey have called off defender Linvoy Primus' proposed loan move to Charlton.

The 34-year-old had been lined up to spend the rest of the season at The Valley, but Pompey boss Harry Redknapp was unwilling to sanction any deal running beyond the end of the calendar year.
