Alex McLeish will be hoping that his Blues side will be flying high at the top of the table tonight after they boarded a plane this morning to travel to Plymouth for tonights Championship clash.
Blues have added to their injury worries this week as there are several absentees for the game on the south coast. Gary O'Connor (groin) Stephen Kelly (knee) Gary McSheffrey (knee) and James McFadden (groin) all remain on the sidelines along with Seb Larsson and David Murphy who have also picked slight strains and look set to miss the game.
The only other doubt going into the clash is Liam Ridgwell who is recovering from a virus that saw him miss his first game of the season on Saturday against Watford.
For Plymouth striker Emile Mpenza misses out along with skipper Karl Duguid who has a calf strain. Therefore Plymouth look set to go with Rory Fallon and Steven MacLean up top.
The Pilgrims have struggled so far this season not really been able to find any form of late sitting 11th in the Championship and with Blues putting the pressure on leaders Wolves they must see this game as a chance to bring home all three points. Wolves entertain Derby at the Molineux while Reading host Blackpool at the Madejski Stadium.
