Birmingham vs Burton Albion Prediction & Betting Tips - League One
by Daniel Ngulu | in League One Predictions
Top of the table Birmingham will host relegation-threatened Burton Albion on Match Day 22 of the English League One. Read on for our prediction of this match. Birmingham are in excellent form.
Chris Davies’ men, who have two games in hand, have won 14 of their 19 league games. They have amassed 45 points and have a one-point advantage over Wycombe in second spot.
The Blues, who are seeking to make an immediate return to the Championship, are on a seven-match winning streak. Four times in this streak they have kept clean sheets, including in their most recent game, a 1-0 success away to Crawley.
While Birmingham are fighting at the top end of the table, Burton are battling on the opposite end. The visitors are waist-deep in the relegation zone and sit second from bottom and nine points adrift of safety.
Gary Bowyer’s men, who have a game in hand, have managed just two wins and lost another 12. They have amassed 12 points and are separated from bottom-placed Shrewsbury by goal difference.
The Brewers haven’t won any of their last four fixtures and have lost three times in this period. They are coming off a 2-1 home defeat to Exeter.
