Birmingham vs Stoke City Team news :
Even though Eustace will think about picking a Birmingham team that stays the same on Monday, the Blues boss has other options if he wants fresh legs. In addition to Juninho Bacuna in the middle of the field or on the right flank, Hannibal Mejbri and Scott Hogan may return in the attack and central midfield positions, respectively.
Any semblance of Dion Sanderson and Troy Deeney stay uninvolved through injury. After substitutions began, Stoke’s problems against Bristol City surfaced, which may motivate Neil to stick with the same team if fitness permits.
Morgan Fox and Lewis Baker are viable substitutes in defense and midfield, respectively; however, Axel Tuanzebe will once more be sidelined by injury.
