Birmingham vs Coventry City Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by James | in FA Cup Predictions
Birmingham City host Coventry City in FA Cup replay action this weekend. The fourth round sequel takes place after a goalless draw between the pair in a reverse fixture last week. The venue will remain the same as Coventry are currently tenants of St. Andrew's. It was clear to see which team the ground belonged to in the opening exchanges of that goalless stalemate. Championship side Birmingham created more openings than their League One counterparts, with Lukas Jutkiewicz getting the best opportunities. As the game wore on, Coventry took control and passed up an amazing chance to win the tie late on. Callum O'Hare trickled a shot wide when the goal was at his mercy. That may come back to haunt Coventry. We think it was their best chance of progressing.
The draw was a fair conclusion of the previous game. Both teams are evenly matched and in good form. Coventry are now unbeaten in ten matches in all competitions, while Birmingham have put together a run of six games without a defeat. They're at opposite ends of the table - across two different leagues. Birmingham are 17th and eight points clear of the relegation zone in the second tier; Coventry are in fifth place one division down, five points from the summit of the table. The Sky Blues gave a good account of themselves in the previous contest and won't be underestimated in this battle. Yet we don't see them knocking their opponents out. Birmingham were given a scare late on last time out. They won't be caught napping a second time. Back Birmingham to win.

Our Birmingham vs Coventry City Prediction
Like an unsuspecting tyrant, Birmingham were almost toppled by their close (in terms of proximity) allies last week in what could be described as an FA Cup coup. It would have been strange to lose an away match at home. They passed that test and don't have to wrestle with the paradoxical headache of such a defeat. Now, a true home win will occur. Back Birmingham.
