Newcomers Henriksen and Benkovic in contention for Bristol City
Posted Friday, February 07, 2020 by PA
Bristol City’s new signings Markus Henriksen and Filip Benkovic could be included in the squad for the home game against Birmingham.
Midfielder Henriksen and defender Benkovic both arrived on loan until the end of the season on transfer deadline day from Hull and Leicester respectively.
Another recent arrival, Nahki Wells, made his debut off the bench in last week’s win at QPR and will be hoping for his first start.
Forward Andreas Weimann is expected to shake off a dead leg, Jack Hunt (ankle) will be assessed and fellow defender Thomas Kalas is still out.
Birmingham will be without Josh McEachran and Jacques Maghoma, who both sustained long-term injuries in the midweek penalty shootout win against Coventry in their FA Cup replay.
Midfielder McEachran suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury and will be out for up to nine months.
Winger Maghoma is expected to be sidelined for six weeks after sustaining a thigh injury.
Midfield pair Dan Crowley and Kerim Mrabti (both hamstring) remain unavailable.
