The Blues are third place in the league after taking 10 points in their opening four fixtures.
Murphy told the club's official website: "We have certainly got a strong enough squad to sustain a promotion bid.
"Obviously you need that little bit of luck with injuries but if we can stay injury-free then I see no problem with us getting automatic promotion."
