Swansea City host Birmingham City in a Championship clash where both sides are free of fresh injury concerns following their recent FA Cup outings. Anyhow, we predict a 2-1 home win as the Swans have turned their stadium into a real fortress. The Welsh have shown solid home form this season, winning four and drawing one of their five games at home, scoring 1.6 goals per match while conceding just 0.6. Overall, they average 2.4 goals per game and have kept clean sheets in 40% of matches, showing defensive resilience, particularly at the Liberty Stadium.
Birmingham City have been having their ups and downs of late The Blues are unbeaten in two of their last five (ddlww), but struggling on the road with just one win in five away games. Their matches are high-scoring affairs, averaging 3.2 goals per game overall, and BTTS has occurred in 80% of their fixtures this season. H2H meetings suggest a competitive encounter, with over 2.5 goals in 10 of the last 17 clashes and BTTS in 59%.
Fine home record gives Swansea City advantage in Saturday's game. Therefore, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals due to Swansea’s attacking home form and Birmingham’s high-scoring matches.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 17 January 2026 at 17:30.
