Birmingham City Millwall betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be Birmingham don’t win. It’s true that the home team has the support of their fans, but on this journey, they receive a motivated "enemy" after having won two of the last three away matches, at Leeds and Reading’s ground. Thus, it’s expectable that Millwall will take advantage of the opponent's defensive difficulties and achieve at least one point.
