Makes bench Saturday

Lavia (quadriceps) played one half of Friday's U21 game against Leeds United as planned and makes the bench for Saturday's clash against Burnley with the senior team.

Analysis: Lavia is on the verge of logging his first senior minutes since early November after a quad injury kept him sidelined for months. The midfielder took a key step in his comeback by playing a planned half in Friday's U21 matchup against Leeds United, building match fitness, and he now makes the bench for Saturday's clash against the Clarets with the senior squad. He could see some minutes off becnh if called upon during the game and once he will be back to full speed, Lavia is expected to re-enter the rotation and provide added depth in the midfield mix for the Blues.

Starts in U21 game

Lavia (quadriceps) is in the starting squad for Friday's U21 game against Leeds United, according to Bobby Vincent from Football London.

Analysis: Lavia slots into the U21 starting XI for Friday's clash against Leeds United as he enters the final stretch of his recovery and continues ramping up his fitness. The midfielder is targeting a return to full first-team training next week and is working his way back to peak condition. If everything stays on track, he could soon provide a real boost and added quality to the Blues midfield before the end of the month.
