Birmingham vs Burnley - No new concerns for Birmingham manager Gary Rowett



Posted Friday, April 15, 2016 by PA

Birmingham manager Gary Rowett has no fresh injury worries ahead of the visit of Burnley.

The manager is likely to have a fully fit squad and could recall Arsenal loanee Jon Toral after the midfielder started Tuesday's 2-1 defeat to Leeds on the bench.

Rowett also wants to give young winger Viv Solomon-Otabor more game time during the closing stages of the season as he prepares him for a bigger role next year.

Neal Eardley, out of contract at the end of the campaign, is sidelined with a serious knee injury which will keep him out until next season.

Sam Vokes is a doubt for Burnley's trip to the midlands.

The Wales international striker came off with a groin strain in the win over Leeds last weekend but, with Middlesbrough visiting Turf Moor in a crucial top-of-the-table clash next Tuesday, boss Sean Dyche may be cautious.

Midfielder David Jones also came off with a bout of illness, though Dyche is more confident he will be in the mix to feature.

Striker Lukas Jutkiewicz is still absent for Dyche's side but he is nearing a return from a long-term knee injury.
