Birmingham City are "extremely confident" Saturday's match at St Andrew's (kick-off 17:30 GMT) will go ahead, despite recent adverse weather.

A statement on the club's official website reads: "Discussions have taken place with the local authorities, the emergency services and the Premier League and there is nothing to prevent the match taking place at present.

"The club’s undersoil heating system means there are no problems at all with the pitch. Blues will continue to talk to the relevant authorities and monitor weather reports."

United fans due to travel to St Andrew's are encouraged to keep an eye on www.manutd.com and www.bcfc.com for further updates.
