Birmingham City face Bristol City at Ashton Gate this afternoon, a venue that has been kind to Blues in recent seasons.

It’s good to get a couple of bodies back into the group. Hogan will be fit to return, having not played since the resumption after the World Cup – but George Hall has suffered a set-back after being close to recovering from a calf problem. “He has been outside a little bit today, we will have to wait and see how he reacts to that. Sanderson is back after missing the defeat to Middlesbrough with a hamstring problem. Is Scott Hogan ready to play a full 90? “I don’t know if it’s a long term issue with his back, he just jarred it in the Burnley game, which had the effect then against Hull – obviously he came off in an important period of time. Scans have shown there was nothing more than a ‘slight strain’ and Sanderson has not been definitely ruled out of the Bristol City match this weekend. Bristol City play a pass straight down the middle of the pitch and Nahki Wells is running side-by-side with Long. Hannibal Mejbri and George Friend are also named with the subs. Instead they were on the wrong end of a 4-2 defeat and a dressing down from manager John Eustace. They've had their moments in this half but they have looked wobbly at the back, with Scott and Pring causing them no end of problems. Bacuna lost the ball upfield, Bristol City attack down the Blues right, Semenyo flew past Long like he was wearing concrete boots.

The latest Birmingham City news and views from BirminghamLive as Blues are hammered 4-2 at Ashton Gate.

As the game opened up in the second half he made a couple of good runs but it was almost as if Blues have forgotten how to harness his movement. Dispatched his penalty in tradedmark fashion and might have opened the scoring but for a block by Vyner. None of the goals were his fault but he won't have enjoyed seeing Sykes come off the right to claim a brace. Looked really dangerous running at defenders and was rewarded with a free kick outside the box and a penalty. His work-rate was commendable but his delivery from set-pieces and supply into the box didn't match it. A mixed bag in the opening 45, swept some lovely passes to the flanks but also got caught on the ball a couple of times. Allowed Sykes to ghost past him at the start of the second half. Seemed to be slowed by his recent fitness scare and tested in the opening 45 as Pring and Scott opened Blues up. Didn't have much chance with either of the goals but twice saved well at his near post in the first half. The Bermudan went on to fire in off Khadra, who had come on with half an hour to go, pulled one back when Jordan Graham poked a pass through the defence and sent him clean away. They did at least pull a couple of goals back, for 2-1 and then 4-2, as Troy Deeney and Reda Khadra both found the net..

Latest injury news from the Bristol City and Birmingham City camps with both struggling with injuries.

Bristol City claim a much-needed win against relegation rivals Birmingham City, ending a three-month wait for a win at home.

“The win today was the most important thing and we’ve got it. We’ve worked really hard to change the profile of this team from a side that can’t run, and that’s what it was when I arrived here, the fitness stats were woeful.” Advertisement

Again, Pring began the move as he fed Semenyo wide left and the flyer ghosted past his marker to pick out Sykes for the simplest of finishes. Pring had been a nuisance all afternoon on the left-hand side and it would be full-back’s pace and power that would make the difference once again. The hosts then allowed Birmingham City back into the contest as Tahith Chong was brought down in the box by Pring.
