Gordon Brown and President Pervez Musharraf are expected to talk about Pakistan's upcoming elections when they meet in London.
The prime minister is likely to urge Mr Musharraf to take steps to ensure the elections are free and fair.
The pair are also set to discuss the fight against terrorism and the safety of Pakistan's nuclear weapons.
Further protests about Mr Musharraf's human rights record are expected outside Downing Street.
The BBC's diplomatic correspondent James Robbins said the prime minister would offer more help and equipment to fight terrorism and extremism.
"He will also press for much more spending on state schools in Pakistan to provide a real alternative to madrassa schools, accused of teaching radicalism and violence," he added.
