Norwich City are the guests at St. Andrew's Stadium on Saturday for their Championship meeting with Birmingham City, and we have the latest injury news and predicted line ups to hand.

Birmingham City head into this fixture following a 1-1 Championship drawn match vs Huddersfield Town. It seems likely that The Blues should go for a 4-2-3-1 formation and select John Ruddy, Ethan Laird, Krystian Bielik, Dion Sanderson, Lee Buchanan, Seung-ho Paik, Ivan Sunjic, Oliver Burke, Tyler Roberts, Keshi Anderson and Jay Stansfield.

There’s just the lone fitness concern for the Birmingham City boss Gary Rowett to contend with due to a largely intact group. Alfie Chang will miss out.

How Birmingham City could look against Norwich City

In their previous game, Norwich City drew 2-2 in the Championship match with Swansea City. It’s our belief that The Canaries seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup by sending out Angus Gunn, Jack Stacey, Shane Duffy, Ben Gibson, Sam McCallum, Marcelino Núñez, Kenny McLean, Gabriel Sara, Ashley Barnes, Borja Sainz and Josh Sargent.

Norwich boss David Wagner has to currently contend with reduced team options. Dimitrios Giannoulis (Hamstring injury), Jonathan Rowe (Hamstring injury) and Grant Hanley (unknown injury) are not able to play.
