Sheff Utd (7) v Birmingham (2)

Arturo Lupoli, Jamie Ward, Craig Beattie, Leigh Bromby and John-Joe O'Toole could all feature for Sheffield United after being cup-tied for the 2-1 FA Cup fifth round replay loss to Hull. However Lee Hendrie, Gary Naysmith and Billy Sharp are all doubts after picking up various knocks. Kevin Blackwell hopes Nick Montgomery, Matthew Kilgallon and Danny Webber will return to action soon and is confident one of the trio will be available to play.

Birmingham captain Lee Carsley is expected to return after a neck complaint. Lee Bowyer and Sebastian Larsson are suspended. Kevin Philips (hamstring) Stuart Parnaby (thigh), James McFadden (knee), Kemy Agustien (groin) and Colin Doyle (back) are all unavailable for the visit to Bramall Lane.
