Coventry City will arrive at St. Andrew's Stadium on Saturday for their Championship tie with Birmingham City. Let’s check on the predicted line ups and player availability.

Birmingham City will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 0-1 Championship loss in their previous game against Cardiff City. We are thinking that The Blues could use a 4-2-3-1 formation with John Ruddy, Ethan Laird, Dion Sanderson, Emanuel Aiwu, Lee Buchanan, Krystian Bielik, Seung-ho Paik, Koji Miyoshi, Jordan James, Juninho Bacuna and Jay Stansfield.

It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just a single fitness concern for the Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett to contend with from a near full-strength group of players. Alfie Chang will miss out.

Possible Birmingham City team for the game against Coventry City

Following on from being beaten in their last game against Southampton in Championship competition, Coventry City and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one. We believe The Sky Blues appear most likely to utilise a 4-2-3-1 lineup using Brad Collins, Milan van Ewijk, Bobby Thomas, Joel Latibeaudiere, Jake Bidwell, Josh Eccles, Liam Kitching, Callum O'Hare, Ben Sheaf, Haji Wright and Ellis Simms.

Out of a mainly available group, there’s only a single fitness issue for the Coventry City manager Mark Robins to be concerned about. Tatsuhiro Sakamoto (Back injury) misses out for this game.
