Prediction: 2-3
Birmingham City
Crawley Town will try to claim a major scalp when they face Birmingham City in the closing match of the League One round 21. The Red Devils have a chance to escape the relegation zone, but they will have a mountain to climb against the promotion-chasing visitors. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Tola Showunmi, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late.
The Blues, on the other hand, are eager to stay in the automatic promotion berth. Given Birmingham City’s attacking potential and Crawley Town’s need for crucial points, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. In their last meeting in a competitive match, back in 2015, Birmingham City rolled over Crawley Town 5-1, which goes in favour of our earlier prediction. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
