Injury updates for Hull City vs. Birmingham City Championship: four players ruled out and two questionable..
In the upcoming Championship clash between Hull City and Birmingham City, there are significant injury concerns for both teams.
For Birmingham City, interim manager Mark Venus has revealed that Krystian Bielik and Marc Roberts are both dealing with injuries. Bielik is sidelined with a torn stomach muscle and is expected to be out for several weeks, potentially until after the international break. Roberts, on the other hand, is dealing with a tight calf and is likely to be a doubt for the match against Hull City, although he could possibly return for the weekend fixture against Millwall. Additionally, Alfie Chang remains unavailable due to a season-ending injury, while Dion Sanderson is set to miss out due to a red card suspension.
As for Hull City, there are concerns about the fitness of Republic of Ireland striker Aaron Connolly, who is nursing a dead leg sustained in a previous match. Connolly has struggled to find momentum in recent months and has been limited in playing time. Liam Delap, another striker, is ruled out with a knee injury sustained in January and is expected to be sidelined for three months.
In summary, Birmingham City will be without Bielik, Roberts, Chang, and Sanderson, with Roberts being doubtful. Hull City may have to contend with the absence of Connolly, while Delap is definitely out of contention.
