Last night, Aidy Boothroyd was at St Andrews to see Birmingham City progress to the League Cup Final with a 3-1 win over West Ham and the City boss who has off-loaded Michael Doyle to Sheffield United this week, told the CT: "I don't think I will have a choice given the amount of players I have got available."
With Doyle gone, Sammy Clingan could come into the team which lost 2-1 at QPR on Sunday.
Birmingham boss Alex McLeish is also expected to make changes to his side. The Scot is waiting to see how Craig Gardner is after taking a knock during Wednesday night's win before he names his team.
