Birmingham City - Peterborough United betting tips and odds

With bookies pricing a home win at 2.00, it’s clear the match may yet go either way. The hosts have a distinct advantage, of course, but both a draw and an away win are quite possible outcomes.

It’s highly unlikely that Peterborough United will manage to get some points this round. Birmingham City are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

While they haven’t exactly recorded as convincing win as their supporters had hoped for, Birmingham still earned important three points in the previous round and will relish an opportunity for a bigger-margin victory this Tuesday.

Peterborough United are coming off from a crushing 3:0 away loss against West Bromwich Albion in the previous round. West Bromwich Albion were considered far stronger going in – so much so that even the draw at half time was slightly unexpected.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and The Blues have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Peterborough United have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the Championship. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

We already saw these two teams clash this season, and Peterborough United carried off a narrow home win. The roles are reversed this time, however, and the betting odds are marking The Blues as somewhat more likely to win.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

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 2.10 odds offered at Betsson.
