Derby County vs Birmingham Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Nella Wagah | in Championship Predictions
Things are getting tougher for Derby County after suffering a fourth straight loss in the Championship and Wayne Rooney has a big task trying to salvage what remains of their season. The team will be hosting Birmingham on Match Day 44 in the Championship and Derby head there on 43 points and placed 21st. Birmingham are 19th on 49 points. Derby are coming from 3-0 loss to Preston which left them just four points above the relegation zone. In their last 10 league matches, Derby have led at half time in only one, and have trailed at the break in six of the 10. They’ve lost eight of the last 12 Championship matches, and won just one. With the season drawing to a close, Derby have tough games to wrap up their campaign. After this game, they face promotion-seekers, Swansea then relegation-threatened Sheffield Wednesday, who have been impressive lately. It hasn’t been any easier at home, with just six wins in the 21 league matches played there this season. In the last five home league matches, Rooney’s team has one win and one clean sheet.
Birmingham have enjoyed a fine run in their recent matches. They’ve been pulling away from the relegation zone and are now 10 points to the good, though not yet safe. They’ve left no doubts about their ambition to stay up though, with an unbeaten run of five matches, registering three wins and four clean sheets in there. They had a setback in their last game, conceding in the last minute to draw 1-1 with Nottingham but they should be able to rise again here. Efficiency in defence has meant they don’t have to score a lot to secure the points; they’ve scored more than a goal in just one of the last five matches. However, some improvement is needed with their away matches, having won one in the last five. In their 21 away matches in the Championship this season, they have six wins.

Our Derby County vs Birmingham Prediction
Birmingham have been a different side since that win over Swansea and they’ve gone on to rise 10 points away from the drop zone. They are doing well, while Derby are struggling, with four straight losses going to this game. Derby have trailed at half time in six of their last 10 league matches. Most of Birmingham’s recent goals have come in the second half but after the last minute concession against Nottingham, they’ll want to settle this earlier, so go for a Birmingham lead at half time.
