Betting on Birmingham City
Birmingham has experienced a sharp decline lately. At one point, they were contending for a promotion playoff spot, but now they find themselves perilously close to the relegation zone after a five-game losing streak.
Their match against Norwich City was postponed, giving them a much-needed break. This was reflected in their victory over Swansea City, where they secured a 3-4 win and valuable three points.
The match was a nail-biter, as they trailed 3-2 in the 58th minute. However, thanks to goals from Lukas Jutkiewicz and center back Auston Trusty, they managed to turn things around in the 97th minute. They knew they couldn’t afford another loss, as the path ahead would only become even more challenging.
Possible Lineup (5-3-2): John Ruddy; Maxime Colin, Dion Sanderson, Kevin Long, Auston Trusty, George Friend; Gary Gardner, Krystian Bielik, Tahith Chong; Scott Hogan, Reda Khadra.
Betting on West Bromwich Albion F.C.
West Brom is the antithesis of the Blues. The team has been making a resurgence, moving from a comfortable position in the relegation zone to now being on the brink of securing a spot in the Premier League. The transformation is largely due to the new life breathed into the team by Spanish coach, Carlos Corberán.
With 10 wins in 11 games and only one loss, against Burnley in a close match that ended 2-1 (a mistake at the end of the game caused them to lose), the team has shown its ability to bounce back from mistakes.
Last game, they secured a 1-0 victory over Coventry and that has become a hallmark of Corberán’s team: winning by a small margin, being highly effective, having a solid defense, and avoiding unnecessary risks.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): David Button, Darnell Furlong, Dara O’Shea, Erik Peters, Conor Townsend; Jayson Molumby, Okay Yokuslu; Marc Albrighton, Jed Wallas, Grady Diangana; Daryl Dike.
JefeBet Prediction
These teams played on matchday 10 and Birmingham took the result with a 2-3 scoreline at The Hawthorns, but those were different times. The Baggies were in a lousy form, while Birmingham were in good form. Today, we believe that West Bromwich will cash in on the offense and win the game.
Prediction: Birmingham 1-2 West Brom.
