Birmingham V Bolton - view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game live.


James Vaughan set to return for Birmingham

Birmingham striker James Vaughan is available to face Bolton after shrugging off a calf injury.

The forward missed the 0-0 draw at Rotherham but trained on Monday ahead of the visit of the Trotters on Tuesday.

David Cotterill is fit after suffering no ill effects to a hamstring injury following his comeback in the stalemate at the New York Stadium.

Nicolai Brock Madsen is out though after suffering a minor quad injury during training ahead of the game at St Andrew's.

Bolton are sweating on the fitness of goalkeeper Ben Amos ahead of the trip to the midlands.

The stopper has a slight ankle injury he picked up in the 1-1 draw with QPR on Saturday so Paul Rachubka may have to deputise.

Striker Emile Heskey (hip) is unlikely to play in a fourth successive match but Wanderers boss Neil Lennon is confident that Zach Clough can feature after coming off at the weekend with cramp.

Liam Trotter, David Wheater and Max Clayton (all hamstring) continue to miss out for the Sky Bet Championship strugglers.
