Wes Burns and Nathan Broadhead could be among the Town players to win international caps today.

The duo are with the Wales senior squad which takes on Croatia in a Euro 2024 qualifier at Stadion Poljud in Split this evening (KO 7.45pm).

This evening’s fixture is being shown live for free on S4C with a Welsh commentary, while it is also being screened by Viaplay 1.

Burns, who has been handed the number 19 shirt, has previously won three full caps, while Broadhead, who will wear 23, will be making his international debut if he is involved.

Former Blues striker Kieffer Moore, now with Bournemouth, is also in the squad, as are one-time Town schoolboy Morgan Fox, currently with Stoke City, and Portsmouth's Ipswich-born midfielder Joe Morrell.
