£2m ‘graduate’ gets nod as Lee Buchanan call made - Birmingham City predicted XI v Peterborough - gallery

Here’s how we predict Birmingham City’s starting lineup to look against Peterborough United for Saturday’s pre-season friendly.

Birmingham City are back in pre-season action on Saturday afternoon as they travel away to Sky Bet League One side Peterborough United.

John Eustace and his men will be hoping they can continue their perfect start to pre-season following victories against FC Cartagena, Northampton Town and Cheltenham Town.

Kicking off at 3pm at Weston Homes Stadium, Blues have one final opportunity to get minutes in the legs ahead of the 2023/24 season opener at Swansea City on August 5.

Nine new signings have been made this summer and it’s expected a whole host of them will play this weekend, while a few academy players will likely get the nod.

With that in mind, flick through the pages to see the starting lineup we think Eustace will go with, as well as explanations for each pick.
