Birmingham City team news and predicted XI to face Swansea City: August Priske remains a doubt

Birmingham City striker August Priske remains an injury doubt ahead of the club's Championship clash with Swansea City at St Andrew's. The Danish forward, who has scored seven goals this season, missed the midweek 3-0 victory against Millwall after sustaining a heavy knock against Lincoln City. Manager Chris Davies confirmed Priske has made progress, but a final decision on his availability will depend on a fitness assessment.

Third-place Birmingham City and fifth-place Swansea City are tied on 26 points as both push for automatic promotion. Davies may keep an unchanged lineup if Priske is sidelined, while Paik Seung-ho and Dael Fry could return to the bench. Swansea manager Vitor Matos aims to rebound after his side conceded two stoppage-time goals in a 3-1 loss to Portsmouth.
