Chris Davies will probably have a list similar to that on Tuesday evening in League One, whereby Newcastle has to keep the former Fulham man Jay Stansfield in the foreground. The 22-year-old has 17 goals in all competitions this season.
Grant Hanley was able to face his former employers, while ex-Liverpool defender Ben Davies was able to set up next to him in the backline. The former product Ethan Laird in Manchester United Academy will probably also appear in a way.
Lee Buchanan is on the road for the rest of the season, but Paik Seung -Ho and Willum Willumsson could both return for the first time since the third round of the FA Cup – the latter was impressive this season.
Birmingham predicted Lineup vs Newcastle (4-2-3-1): Allsopp; Laird, clearer, Davies, Cochrane; Dowell, Iwata; Anderson, Leonard, Stansfield; May.
With regard to injuries, Newcastle are without Joelinton, Harvey Barnes and Jamaal Lascelles, while Sven Botman is also failing. The Dutch defender avoided a serious injury after picking up a knock winner during the week, but is not available for the FA Cup.
Emil Krafth performed in better news for the first time since October at the victory on Wednesday and Callum Wilson turned out for the first time since December.
Howe can make changes after Newcastle Carabao Cup excursion in his starting line -up, with Fringe potentially earning Fringe like Sean Longstaff, Joe Willock and William Osula.
Newcastle predicted Lineup against Birmingham (4-3-3): Pope; Livramento, Schar, Burn, Targett; Miley, Longstaff, Willock; Murphy, Wilson, Osula.
Birmingham may be in a dazzling form, but they still have to be tested by one side of Newcastle quality this season. The blues are also not particularly productive goal scorers, which often shadow through the strange gate in the first division.
Even a much changed Newcastle XI should have the opportunity to secure the victory at St. Andrews, especially if stars like Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon are available from the bank. They will be exposed to the West Midland’s resistance, but should have the firepower to overcome the blues.
