Leicester have only lost three of their last 21 league games against Birmingham City (W12 D6) and none of their last five (W3 D2) since a 2-0 defeat in October 2011. Only Leeds (0) have lost fewer home league games in the Championship this season than Birmingham (W5 D4 L1), though have only won one of their four such games so far under Wayne Rooney (D2 L1). Leicester have won eight of their 10 away league games so far this season (D1 L1), their most in their first 10 league games on the road in a season in their history. Leicester’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has already registered eight away goal involvements in the Championship this season (2 goals, 6 assists), as many as in his previous four seasons in the Football League combined (4 goals, 4 assists). Blues vs Leicester live: Team news and updates as Rooney looks for three pointsWayne Rooney won’t get a ‘Wagatha Christie’-themed sideshow but his Birmingham City team will tonight be given the sternest test there is in the Championship this season when they face Leicester City at St Andrew’s. Blues, who have slipped from sixth to 17th since changing managers midway through the campaign, are looking for their third win in 11 games under Rooney, while the Foxes are looking to capitalise on Ipswich’s slip at the weekend. Blues arrive on the back of a morale-boosting victory over Cardiff City last time out – delivered by what was as good a 90 minutes as Rooney’s team have managed so far and an impudent goal from Juninho Bacuna. The England youth goalkeeper has impressed too at the Kassam Stadium; to date Beadle has kept nine clean sheets in his 24 senior appearances this season and his performances have contributed to the U's finding themselves in third place in League One before the festive schedule. Last winter the teenager signed a new long term contract with Brighton which runs until the summer of 2026, before they decided to loan him out in the summer. It's his second experience of EFL football having earned minutes in the second half of last season's League Two campaign with Crewe Alexandra. Beadle has, according to the Sheffield Star, gathered interest from Sheffield Wednesday and Blues ahead of the reopening of the January window. The striker has missed the last two league games and Leicester manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed that it is ‘impossible’ for the striker to play the game. “Jamie was (injured) in training. Unfortunately, for Monday, it’s impossible, ” he said. “I knew a little bit the story (about wives' legal case). But absolutely not, Jamie is injured already for many days. ” The absence of Vardy could come as a relief to Rooney, who was hoping to avoid a ‘sideshow’ that would overshadow what happens on the pitch. “The game is Birmingham City against Leicester, ” said Rooney. He added: “I played with him for England. I played with many players for England. It’s not someone who I have ever had a relationship with outside of being in a training camp or games. I respect Jamie Vardy a lot, he’s a fantastic player and still has a lot to offer Leicester. “What’s important is we don’t get dragged into a sideshow. Everything that’s happened in the past, which everyone is aware of, has been dealt with from a legal point of view. My job is to now focus on Birmingham trying to win the game. ”17:29Brian DickKeeper linkBirmingham City have been credited with an interest in young goalkeeper James Beadle ahead of the opening of the January transfer window.
