Skipper Stephen Carr is not yet ready to make his comeback in Birmingham's FA Cup fourth-round trip to Sheffield United but Liam Ridgewell does return.
Carr has not featured since mid-December due to a knee injury but has returned to training and is not far off full fitness.
Ridgewell, who is the subject of speculation regarding his future at the midlands club, has missed City's last two games with a hamstring problem but is back in the fold, as is fellow defender Pablo Ibanez who has been sidelined recently with a knee complaint.
Striker Marlon King was forced off just after half-time in last Saturday's 3-0 victory over Watford with a tight groin and is a doubt although the problem is minor, while manager Chris Hughton has opted to rest King and Nikola Zigic for FA Cup duty in any case.
Winger Jean Beausejour has this week completed an undisclosed move to Wigan, meaning Nathan Redmond is likely to come in at Bramall Lane.
Guirane N'Daw remains at the African Nations Cup with Senegal, who have one group match remaining despite being unable to qualify for the knockout stages of the competition.
