Huddersfield Town vs Birmingham Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in FA Cup Predictions
This game represents a good chance for Premier League strugglers Huddersfield Town to make their way into the last sixteen of the FA Cup. They are currently 14th in the Premier League, a position that wouldn't normally be too much of a worry, but not this season. They are just two points above the relegation zone and a swift return to the Championship looks possible. Huddersfield have only won one of their last seven games and that was their third round win at Bolton. Home form has had some bright spots this year, notably that win over Manchester United but they have gone four home matches without a win since defeating Brighton and Hove Albion on December 9. A home game against struggling Birmingham is a good opportunity to get a win and get some confidence into the team. Birmingham City are one from bottom in the Championship and got to this round by beating the one team below them in that table, Burton Albion. The Blues would be a decent bet if they had been given a home tie but their away form is of great concern. They have one win in their last 14 away matches and have the worst away record in the Championship with just seven points from 14 games. A home win for Huddersfield is the selection here.

Our Huddersfield Town vs Birmingham Prediction
Sometimes a cup run can help league form and both these sides will be hoping that is the case this season. Huddersfield have been inconsistent after a good start to their season and Birmingham have been struggling since August. Huddersfield have the home advantage and that is the key here as they face a side that have terrible away form. Go for a home win in this game.
