Nottingham Forest loanee Robert Tesche will make his Birmingham City debut against relegation-threatened Blackpool in the Championship at St Andrew's.
Tesche replaces Stephen Gleeson, who begins his three-match ban after his sending-off in the 1-0 win over Brentford at the weekend, City's first league victory in nine games.
Meanwhile, Blackpool will be without teenage winger Henry Cameron after the 17-year-old damaged ankle ligaments in the 3-1 defeat against fellow relegation candidates Wigan Athletic last weekend.
Sheffield Wednesday loanee Gary Madine continues in attack for the Tangerines, who go into the game 15 points from safety.
