Team News

Birmingham
Bolton
  • Jay Stansfield is doubtful after missing the Lincoln win with a knock he picked up playing for England Under-21s.
  • Krystian Bielik will definitely miss out.
  • Nathan Baxter is still struggling with a muscle injury.

Prediction

  • Birmingham responded to their first defeat of the campaign like champions in the making after coming from behind to beat Lincoln and stay top of League One.
  • The Blues have won their last four home league games, but face one of their toughest tests of the campaign against an ever-improving Bolton side.
  • Ian Evatt's side endured a nightmare start to the season but 13 points from the last 15 available has seen them rapidly climb the table.
  • The visitors have won three of their last five trips to St Andrew's, including their last back in February 2019.
