Jack Butland misses out on a place in the Birmingham City starting lineup for tonight's meeting with Leeds United.

As predicted, goalkeeper Jack Butland has not been included in the Birmingham City squad that will take on Leeds United in the FA Cup this evening.

Recent reports have suggested that the England international would not be selected so that he does not get cup-tied, thus scuppering any chance of a transfer during this month's window.

That means that Colin Doyle will start between the posts for the hosting Blues, while Marlon King will feature as a lone striker.

Meanwhile, Leeds striker Ross McCormack has come into the starting lineup for Luciano Becchio.

Birmingham: Doyle; Caddis, Caldwell, Davies, Robinson; Burke, Morrison, Gomis, Elliott, Redmond; King

Leeds: Ashdown; Byram, Peltier, Lees, Drury; Green, Austin, Brown, Varney, Diouf; McCormack
