Town’s U23s are in FA Premier League Cup action away against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane this evening (KO 3pm), while the U18s face Bristol City at Playford Road on Saturday morning (KO 11am).
Gerard Nash’s U23s have been drawn with the Blades, West Brom and Aston Villa in Group E of this season’s Premier League Cup.
The Blues went out at the group stage last year when they again faced the Baggies - who they beat 2-1 at home a drew 0-0 with away - as well as Liverpool and Huddersfield.
The competition, which replaced the U21 Premier League Cup last season, emulates the format of the Champions League with 32 teams involved in the group stage and the top two in each going through to the last 16.
From there the ties will be one-off knockout games with extra-time and penalties if required. Last year’s competition was won by Swansea.
The Blues U23s are currently third in the Professional Development League Two South table having suffered only their second defeat of the season away against leaders Coventry, who beat them 2-1, on Monday.
Central defender Adam Webster could play his third U23s game this evening as he continues his comeback from his ankle injury.
Meanwhile, Alan Lee’s U18s will be looking to record their second victory of the season against Bristol City having beaten Birmingham City 4-3 at home a fortnight ago.
