Birmingham City could bring in new Spanish recruits Fran Villalba and Alvaro Gimenez for their first home game, against Bristol City.
The Blues, who made nine changes for the midweek EFL Cup defeat at Portsmouth, have Jacques Maghoma (calf) and Kerim Mrabti out injured.
Bristol City made two deadline day signings; Bologna midfielder Adam Nagy and Stoke City striker Benik Afobe.
Portuguese right-back Pedro Pereira, signed on loan, could also feature.
