Shrewsbury
Birmingham City play host to Shrewsbury Town to their St. Andrew’s Stadium on day 39 of the current League One campaign. The Blues are eyeing their ninth consecutive win at home and they must be high on confidence ahead of Saturday’s encounter. All Buchanan, Dykes, Gardner-Hickman, Laird, and Wright remain on the sidelines with injuries, while South Korean midfielder Seung-Ho Paik is a major doubt.
The Shrews, on the other hand, are stuck at the bottom of the table with only 28 points on their account and given Birmingham City’s impressive home record, anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise. Talented midfielder Leo Castledine continues to miss out with injury, while forward George Lloyd faces race against the clock to be fit for Saturday’s game. In their last meeting at St. Andrew’s Stadium, back in 2006 (EFL Cup), Birmingham City recorded a hard-fought 1-0 win over Shrewsbury Town.
