Sutton United vs Birmingham Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Ian John in FA Cup Predictions
FA Cup First Round action is in store at the Borough Sports Ground as Sutton United of the National League host League One leaders Birmingham City. Will our prediction for this match back another FA Cup giant-killing for the Yellows, or will the Blues prevail?
Sutton United have already won in this competition, defeating Chertsey Town 3-1 on the road in the final Preliminary Round. In the National League, the team sit 12th having picked up 22 points from 16 games.
Their form heading into the game isn’t great with their 1-0 win away to Braintree Town last weekend ending a run of three straight defeats, two of which (1-0 to Gateshead and 3-1 to Oldham Athletic) came at home.
It’s a different story for Chris Davies and his Birmingham City side. The Blues are top of League One with 29 points from 12 games. Three clear of Wycombe in second. City have lost just twice in 17 games this season, winning 12 and drawing three.
City are unbeaten in their past three, winning 3-1 at Lincoln, then 2-0 at home to Bolton before a 1-1 draw at Mansfield last weekend.
With 59 places in the Pyramid separating the two teams, plus the fact Birmingham heavily invested in their squad over the summer, the data suggests that it will be the visiting Blues that start this game as the hot favourites.

Our Sutton United vs Birmingham Prediction
Our prediction for Sutton United vs. Birmingham City in the FA Cup First Round is: HT/FT - Birmingham/Birmingham.
A look at this data for this game shows that a giant-killing is not likely for the home side. A lack of form at home, a tendency to concede first against a team in great form, who scores goals in the first half in away games and who are top of their table makes this a relatively easy prediction to make. If Birmingham can grab the first goal in the first half, then this should be comfortable for the Blues.

2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer
One of the worst feelings when placing a football bet is when the team that you have backed has gone into a multiple-goal lead only to be clawed back to a draw or to lose the game in question. This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position. This is available in 80 different competitions including the major leagues across Europe and can be played on the full-time result market. Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets. As with most promotions, if you cash out a bet in full, the bet will no longer be available for the offer in question. It also cannot be used if you bet on the draw on a game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
