Team News

Birmingham
Sheff Wed
  • Wayne Rooney could recall Krystian Bielik this weekend after he served a one-match suspension two weeks ago.
  • One further change is on the cards for the home side with Siriki Dembele expected to replace Oliver Burke.
  • Danny Röhl could hand a full league debut to promising academy graduate Bailey Cadamarteri, who has lit up the under-21s this season.
  • Versatile midfielder Callum Paterson collected his fifth yellow card of the season against Millwall and will miss the trip to St. Andrew's.

Prediction

  • Birmingham showed some promise during the first half against Sunderland last time out and entered the break with the score tied at 1-1, but a second-half capitulation ended any hopes of salvaging points from their trip to the Stadium of Light. Wayne Rooney has now overseen four defeats and one draw in his first five league games in charge.
  • The 2-0 derby day win against Rotherham is starting to look more and more like a flash in the pan for Sheffield Wednesday, who were demolished 4-0 by Joe Edwards' Millwall side two weeks ago. Danny Röhl's men are rooted to the bottom of the table and already find themselves nine points adrift from safety.
