Blues boss Paul Jewell has confirmed that midfielder Keith Andrews will miss the New Year’s Eve match at Reading with the hamstring injury he suffered at Leicester on Boxing Day. Striker Jason Scotland is a doubt, also with a hamstring problem, but is expected to be OK.

Jewell said: “Keith definitely won’t make Saturday and whether he’ll make Monday is also in doubt. With a hamstring you have to be careful. Jason Scotland has got a bit of a hamstring as well.

"Keith’s definitely out, Jason we think is going to be OK but everybody else at this moment in time is available.”
