Town boss Kieran McKenna says three or four players have remained in Suffolk with minor knocks and niggles ahead of tonight’s FA Cup fourth-round tie at Burnley (KO 7.45pm).
Quizzed on whether there were any players who would be missing at Turf Moor, McKenna said: "There are a few. I don’t want to name our team, which if I give away to many of who’s not here than there are probably some positions which are automatic.
"We’ve had three or four who have had to stay behind with minor injuries and niggles that we’ll have to monitor over the course of the week.”
The Blues squad flew up to the North-West yesterday ahead of their first fourth-round replay since February 1998 when they lost 1-0 at Sheffield United.
In addition to injured players, skipper Sam Morsy is suspended having picked up yellow cards in the first match and Buxton tie, while Harry Clarke is cup-tied.
