Blackpool vs Birmingham Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Ioannis | in Championship Predictions
A month after the last set of fixtures, Championship action resumes with Blackpool playing host to Birmingham at the Bloomfield Road. The hosts are in the penultimate place of the standings with a mere twenty-two points from twenty-one games, while Birmingham lie in fourteenth, five points from the play-off places. The hosts must have welcomed the international World Cup break, as they were in dismal form in its lead-up. They are coming from four defeats on the bounce, failing to score in three of them. The main issue for Blackpool is their lack of clinical edge to actually win games, even when superior to their opponents. They have tasted victory just three times in the last thirteen encounters, and a mere two in their last ten on home turf. On the upside, they have a positive recent record against Birmingham at home, beating them three times in their last five, including a 6-1 demolition in April.
With regards to Birmingham, they are surely doing better than their hosts. While they conceded a 2-1 home defeat to Sunderland in the last game before the break, they had remained unbeaten in the four fixtures before that, while they have only lost two if their last nine matchups. In addition, Birmingham have been efficient on the road. The visitors currently boast the joint-fifth best away record in the Championship, having won in four of their last seven outings. With the league now entering the crucial stage of the season and a great deal of back to back fixtures expected, it is imperative that Birmingham cover the six-point distance from the play-off places, starting from a victory against a poor Blackpool side. On the downside, they have not had the happiest moments when visiting Bloomfield Road of late, having won just one of their most recent six outings there.

Our Blackpool vs Birmingham Prediction
If the game was played before the break, then Birmingham would be clear favourites for this one. Nonetheless, it will be hard to know what exactly the two teams have changed over the break, and we believe that Blackpool will certainly try to be more active and determined in this second half of the campaign. With this in mind, backing both teams to find the net is the smartest play for this encounter.
