Prediction: 1-1
Birmingham City
Sparkles will be flying when Stockport County and Birmingham City lock horns at Edgeley Park on Wednesday afternoon. The Hatters are eager to stay in the playoffs berth, but they face a tough challenge against the league leaders. Fraser Horsfall is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a 1-1 drat with Rotherham United, with Sam Hughes being ready to replace him in the starting XI.
The Blues, on the other hand, failed to turn their dominance into victory in a goalless draw with Blackpool. As Stockport County are on a four-game winning run at home, we do not believe that Birmingham City are capable of grabbing more than one point from the midweek clash. Lee Buchanan is definitely out after suffering an injury against the Seasiders, while Emil Hansson is rated doubtful for the visiting side and will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Highlighted Team (Birmingham City):
Birmingham City are a club located in the city of Birmingham, England. Birmingham City were founded in 1875 as Small Heath Alliance, but the club’s named was changed to Small Heath in 1888. 17 years later they became Birmingham and in 1943 they finally changed their name to Birmingham City.
The Blues welcome their rivals at St. Andrew’s, the stadium that was opened in 1906. Birmingham City compete in the Championship and their fiercest rivals are WBA and Aston Villa. The Blues made it to the FA Cup final twice, but they have yet to win the prestigious trophy. In 1931 they were beaten by their local rivals WBA in the title game (1-2), whilst in 1956 they were outplayed by Manchester City in the title game.
The colour of Birmingham’s home kit is blue with white stripe. Trevor Francis, Gil Merrick, Bob Latchford, Jeff Hall, Alex Govan, Joe Bradford and Christophe Dugarry are notable footballers who played for the St. Andrew’s outfit in the past.
