Brentford Birmingham City betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 16^th position of the league, with 10 points won, after 1 win, 7 draws and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Leeds United, by (1‑2). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Ipswich Town, by (2‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 5 wins, 7 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 13 conceded. In the last 5 away league matches Birmingham City has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 5 points out of 15 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 6 matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 36 of the last 57 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In the last 7 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

Birmingham comes to this round after a 2-2 home draw against Ipswich. The away team typically plays in a 4-4-2 tactical formation, focusing on offensive transitions and channeling the attack through the middle aisles. The two arrows aimed at the goal of the "enemy" will be Jutkiewicz and Adams, and the player responsible for defining and guiding the attacks of his team is English Maghoma. Gardner, Maghoma, Jota and Lakin may play in the most central zone of the field. The coach will not be able to rely on David Davis and Isaac Vassell for being injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Lee Camp, Maxime Colin, Kristian Pedersen, Michael Morrison, Harlee Dean, Maikel Kieftenbeld, Jota Peleteiro, Gary Gardner, Che Adams, Jacques Maghoma, Lukas Jutkiewicz.
Coach: T. Mowbray.
