Team News

Birmingham
Plymouth
  • John Eustace will likely opt for an unchanged starting XI this weekend following an impressive display against Bristol City last time out.
  • George Hall has a small chance of featuring this weekend but Marcel Oakley, Tyler Roberts and Marc Roberts are all unavailable.
  • Steven Schumacher could make a change to his midfield for the trip to St. Andrew's with Callum Wright replacing Luke Cundle.
  • Plymouth will once again be without injured trio Mike Cooper, Brendan Galloway and Macauley Gillesphey.

Prediction

  • Birmingham scored late on in both halves against Bristol City last weekend as they closed out a comfortable and well-deserved 2-0 away victory. John Eustace's side have enjoyed arguably the most impressive transfer window in the division thus far, and have taken seven points from their opening three league games.
  • Plymouth's unbeaten start to the season came to a disappointing end late on against Southampton last weekend. The Pilgrims conceded three minutes into injury time as they were beaten 2-1 by the recently relegated side. Steven Schumacher will remain positive with his side sitting in the top half after three games on their return to the Championship.
