Team News

Birmingham
QPR
  • Lee Buchanan missed the trip to Deepdale through suspension, but Birmingham will have their first-choice left-back available on Friday night.
  • One further change is expected from John Eustace with Curacao international Juninho Bacuna set to return out wide.
  • Gareth Ainsworth could make two changes to the side that faced Swansea with Jack Colback starting after serving his suspension and Lyndon Dykes returning to the starting XI up top.
  • Centre-back Jimmy Dunne is the away side's only confirmed absentee for the trip to St. Andrew's.

Prediction

  • Jay Stansfield gave Birmingham a 1-0 lead a mere minute into the second half against league leaders Preston on Tuesday night, but a comical own goal and Milutin Osmajic strike eventually condemned the Blues to defeat at Deepdale. After winning three games on the spin to kick off the campaign, John Eustace's men have since picked up just one point from the last nine available.
  • QPR were forced to wait until second-half stoppage time to find a breakthrough against a struggling Swansea side in midweek, but Lyndon Dykes' 91st-minute goal proved enough to earn the London club a point. With two wins from the club's last three away league fixtures, Rangers will be confident ahead of their trip to St. Andrew's.
