Wales international forward Roberts ended five and a half years at Leeds by signing for Birmingham this summer and the 24-year-old started last weekend’s Championship opener at Swansea City in which he played 63 minutes of a 1-1 draw.

Roberts was then missing for Tuesday night’s 2-0 win at first round Carabao Cup hosts Cheltenham Town but Blues boss Eustace has revealed that Roberts and right-back Ethan Laird were both rested ahead of Saturday’s visit of the Whites.
