Jack Storer back for Birmingham

Jack Storer is available for Birmingham after serving a three-game ban for his red card against Wolves last month.

But boss Gary Rowett has already warned the forward not to expect to return immediately as he feels the 18-year-old must control his temperament.

Rowett must consider whether to include Bournemouth loanee Rhoys Wiggins, who has been working on his fitness since his switch from the south coast.

Goalkeeper Adam Legzdins could start again after Tomasz Kuszczak pulled out of the warm-up ahead of Tuesday's 0-0 draw at Reading with a quad injury,

Sheffield Wednesday will be without suspended midfielder Sam Hutchinson after losing their appeal against his midweek dismissal.

Hutchinson was shown a straight red card in the win against Bristol City and starts a one-game ban, but Glenn Loovens, yet to appear this season after ankle surgery, is available and will vie with Vincent Sasso to replace him.

Daniel Pudil was forced out on Tuesday night due to a thigh injury and is doubtful, while fellow defender Liam Palmer and leading goalscorer Fernando Forestieri are both pushing for recalls to the starting line-up.

Winger Adam Reach made his full debut in midweek and is expected to continue as the Owls chase their first away league win of the season.
