With Aston Villa likely to drop down to the Championship next season, Birmingham City will be keen on getting promotion and being in a higher league than their local rivals. That's a possibility as they have only lost one of their last eight league games and are on the fringes of the play-offs. Last week they won 3-0 at Derby County so that emphasizes the high level of form they are in at present. Home form is good too with three straight home wins and will be hoping to make it four here. Ipswich are in seventh place and only out of the play-off places on goal difference. They were knocked out of the FA Cup by League Two Portsmouth on Tuesday but it's best to discount that as it was a virtual reserve side put out. Away league form for Ipswich certainly isn't a problem with five wins in their last seven games. The two sides are both in form and drew at Ipswich earlier in the season. I go for them to share the points again this weekend.
