GAMEDAY – Norwich at home
Birmingham City take on Norwich City today looking to kill a run of eight straight league home games without a win stretching back to March. Norwich however come in on the high of a 6-1 thrashing of Coventry in the League Cup in midweek.
Norwich City
Norwich come into the game unbeaten, with eight points from four games. They have a few injury problems however; Ivo Pinto is a doubt while John Ruddy, Martin Olsson, Graham Dorrans, Alex Pritchard and Matt Jarvis are all out. Former Blues loanee Kyle Lafferty is in contention for a start up top alongside another former Blue, Cameron Jerome.

Blues
Rowett is without a couple of players for this game; Stephen Gleeson is a major injury doubt having picked up a knock in training while Jack Storer starts a three match ban for violent conduct. Diego Fabbrini may return after a knock while Reece Brown is likely to be in the 18 having narrowly missed out in previous weeks.
One player who won’t be in the squad is Paul Caddis, who played ninety minutes in the 2-0 development squad defeat to Sheffield Wednesday on Friday.
