Our prediction for this Championship match:
Birmingham City will look to put an end to their three-game winless run in the Championship when they take on Bristol City on Matchday 25. The Blues aim to make amends for a 3-1 loss to Stoke City and you should know that they are eyeing their sixth home win of the process. Krystian Bielik has yet to serve his ban, while all Lee Buchanan, Kevin Long, Cody Drameh, Ethan Laird, Alfie Chang, and George Hall remain in the recovery room.
The Robins, on the other hand, have been in a splendid form of late, with the team winning each of their last three league matches. Bristol City have been scoring goals for fun of late, but beating Birmingham City at St. Andrew’s Stadium is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. All Kal Naismith, Haydon Roberts, Andy King, Rob Atkinson, and Ayman Benarous are out of contention with injuries.
