West Bromwich Albion Birmingham City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

A game that has some tendency to be unbalanced. West Bromwich Albion has a squad with several high quality options, especially at the offensive level, with several very fast and strong players in the 1x1. On the other hand, Birmingham is a team that is going through a very complicated phase and in addition the defensive sector is a very weak point. That said, betting in favor of West Bromwich Albion in this game is a great option.

West Bromwich Albion and Birmingham City meet at The Hawthorns, in a match for the 38th round of the Championship. West Bromwich Albion got an away win by (2‑3), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 14‑12‑2019. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 draw in the last 3 matches. Although this is a match between 2nd and 16th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 8th best in home matches and the 9th best in away matches.

Analysis West Bromwich

The home team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 70 points won, after 19 wins, 13 draws and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Wigan Athletic, by (0‑1). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Swansea City, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 39 points in away matches, with 28 goals scored and 14 conceded, against 31 points won at their stadium, with 36 goals scored and 23 conceded. For the league, West Bromwich Albion won 15 points out of 30 possible points, after 4 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses in the last 10 home matches. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 16 of the last 18 for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 37 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 17 times, but have turned the score around in 6.

West Bromwich heads into this game after a draw, at zeros, in the trip to the Swansea's field, thus totaling the second straight game without winning in this English second division. Right now the home club is just 1 point behind leaders Leeds. Commander Slaven Bilic should draw the team in 4-3-3, favoring possession of the ball and attacks through the corridors: Filip Krovinovic will be the conductor of the team, being this player of enormous technical quality. Experienced striker Robson-Kanu is one of the highlights of West Bromwich, as he has 10 goals scored. For this match the coach cannot count on Diangana and Hegazy, both with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Sam Johnstone, Semi Ajayi, Kieran Gibbs, Ahmed Hegazy, Darnell Furlong, Matt Phillips, Jake Livermore, Romaine Sawyers, Hal Robson-Kanu, Callum Robinson, Matheus Pereira.

Analysis Birmingham

The away team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 47 points won, after 12 wins, 11 draws and 14 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Queens Park Rangers, by (2‑2). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Reading, by (1‑3). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 24 points in away matches and 23 at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 29 conceded at home, against 21 goals scored and 28 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Birmingham City has a record of 4 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 17 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (9 out of 19 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 37 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 17 times and have only turned the score around in 3.

Birmingham enters this game with a defeat, by 1-3, against Reading, adding in this way the fifth straight game without winning in this English second division. Despite the bad moment of the season, the visiting club is far from the relegation zone. Coach Pep Clotet should play in 4-4-2 favoring defensive organization and direct balls for the attack: Dan Crowley is the brain of the team, who is responsible for organizing and creating the offensive process. Striker Lukas Jutkiewicz is Birmingham's top scorer with 12 goals scored. For this game the coach cannot count on McEachran, Bela and Maghoma, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Lee Camp, Jake Clarke-Salter, Maxime Colin, Wes Harding, Harlee Dean, Jude Bellingham, Dan Crowley, Gary Gardner, Maikel Kieftenbeld, Lukas Jutkiewicz, Scott Hogan.
