Defender Dan Harding is considered a doubt for Saturday's trip to Luton, although the player himself is confident he will make it. The full-back was booked for the 10th time at Preston on Tuesday and will miss the home games with Plymouth and Barnsley.

The Blues are also hoping Gavin Williams came through his 70 minutes at Deepdale with no ill effects and that the man he replaced, Matt Richards, is OK after limping off with an ankle problem.

Town will have Alan Lee back from his one-match ban when they travel to Kenilworth Road.

Boss Jim Magilton has confirmed that he wasn't sent off by referee Mark Clattenburg at Preston, he was simply sent to the stand, which suggests no further action is likely.

Magilton has also revealed that Jaime Peters and Owen Garvan were rested at Preston rather than left out due to knocks.
