Leicester loanee Matt Elliott will become the 400th player to appear for the Blues since they turned professional in 1936. Elliott is a certain starter at the Bescot with the squad very much weakened by injury.

Kelvin Davis and Lewis Price are the only two keepers included in the travelling party, so it appears the former Wimbledon stopper has recovered from his stomach bug.

Youngsters Dean Bowditch, Scott Barron, Aidan Collins and Scott Mitchell are all expected to be on the bench.

Squad: Barron, Bent, Bowditch, Collins, Davis, Elliott, Kuqi, Magilton, Miller, Mitchell, Naylor, Price, Richards, Westlake, Wilnis and Wright.
