Birmingham to Win

Reason for tip

Birmingham are worth backing at St Andrew’s, where they have been consistently strong this season. Chris Davies’ side have lost just once at home in the Championship, winning seven and drawing five of their 13 matches. Goals have not been an issue, with 27 scored on home soil, and they are averaging over two goals per game even against top-half opposition. That attacking output gives them a clear edge against a Stoke side who have struggled on their travels.

Birmingham 2-1

Reason for tip

A narrow home win looks the most likely outcome. Birmingham’s home games tend to be competitive but productive, while Stoke have been edged out regularly away from home, losing six of their 11 road matches by a single goal. The hosts are unbeaten in eight at St Andrew’s and have lost only one of their last six overall, so backing them to shade a tight contest makes sense. With Stoke capable of contributing, a 2-1 Birmingham victory fits both teams’ recent patterns.
