Prediction: 2-0
Barnsley
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Shrewsbury Town and Bristol Rovers, Birmingham City will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Barnsley on Matchday 41. The Blues are with one foot in the Championship, but they can’t afford any complacency in the remainder of the season. Fit-again midfielder Seung-Ho Paik is pushing for a start after coming as a substitute in the midweek triumph, while all Lee Buchanan, Lyndon Dykes, and Scott Wright remain on the sidelines with injury.
The Tykes, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table with 54 points on their account. As Barnsley have slim playoffs chances, we predict that the league leaders are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s showdown. In their last meeting at St. Andrew’s Stadium, Birmingham City defeated Barnsley 2-1 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
