Birmingham take on Norwich City, who are yet to land a win this campaign, at Carrow Road in the first round one of the Carabao Cup.

Does Eustace continue going full strength with confidence flowing for the contest? It’s an interesting scenario but given the squad depth or lack-of that Blues currently have at their disposal, it maybe best that the majority of those among the starters are given a break when possible. Birmingham take on Norwich City who are yet to land a win this campaign in round one of the Carabao Cup.

Tate Campbell (CB): Came on 73mins. Jordan Graham (RWB): Pushed his opposite number back quite a few times. Josh Williams (LWB): Made his Blues senior debut for Blues. Had some enjoyment getting forward on the left-side. Auston Trusty (CB): Linked up with Williams on the left-side well. In a firm contrast to the first-half, Blues came out fast after the break and with intensity. Jonathan Leko and debutant Alfie Chang restored the tie, but it was the Canaries who went through on a spot-kick victory.

Jonathan Tomkinson's dream of making his Norwich City debut became a reality on Tuesday night with the American defender going the distance in the Canaries'

A former U.S. Under-17 men’s national team player, Tomkinson will be pushing for more minutes with the first team going forward. The 20-year-old has mainly featured for Norwich City’s Under-23 squad over the past two seasons, logging 52 appearances and three goals in total. Tomkinson started and logged 90 minutes in Norwich City’s 4-2 penalty shootout win over the Blues, after the EFL Championship clubs were level 2-2 after 90 minutes.
