Birmingham City - Huddersfield Town betting tips and odds

Birmingham City will have to fight an uphill battle to win this match. They are the underdogs of the matchup – though Huddersfield Town don’t have a huge advantage. Still, with the 2.75 odds on a home win, things may get a bit dicey.

The visitors are well-aware of the task ahead. Beating The Blues is difficult under any circumstances and doing it on their own turf would be an even bigger achievement for Huddersfield Town.

The hosts will be looking to bounce back from the narrow away defeat they recorded in the last $LEGUE round (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY). If there are any positives to be taken from their previous game then it must be the fact Birmingham City held rather well for the first 45 minutes.

Huddersfield’s previous Championship match ended in victory, though it was a close one. Top online bookmakers considered them to have the upper hand against Cardiff City going in. While the first half was inconclusive, they bagged a 2:1 home win.

The Blues have been having issues defending lately, though it’s mostly affected their away games for now. They’ve recorded 5 concessions in the past 3 games as visitors.

Looking over the stats for the away team, it seems they consistently display a remarkable ability to perform under pressure. They boast 5 goals on record in their latest 3 away games alone and there is no doubt they will be looking to get their name on the score board this time around as well.

These two teams already clashed multiple times this season, and neither managed to come out on top in any of those games. Most bookmakers see Birmingham as the favourites, though, so they’ll want to use the extra drive of being the hosts to finally earn a conclusive result.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 2.15 odds offered at Betsson.
