Birmingham City - Sunderland predictions

With a difficult matchup ahead of them, Birmingham City will need to focus if they want to bring in another 3 points. They are not overwhelmingly outmatched by any means, but they are generally seen as the underdogs compared to Sunderland.

2.43 on an away match is what many punters run away from but Sunderland are a team capable of big things. Therefore, backing them in this match might not be a bad idea after all.

The 2.35 betting odds pointed at Birmingham City as the most likely winners of their previous engagement – largely due to the advantage of playing at home. They delivered on those expectations, albeit with a 1-goal difference secured in the second half.

It didn’t take much for Sunderland to lose their previous away match – an early concession snowballed into a tight 1:0 away loss. Their travelling fans were not too happy considering they were considered to be in better form than Huddersfield Town, the home team in that match.

The away team’s home game record shows a high rate of goal scoring – more than 5 in the previous 3 matches, to be precise. Although they don’t have the advantage of a home game in this showdown, their attackers are still determined to do well against The Blues.

Sunderland decisively won their previous engagement with Birmingham. They secured a multiple-goal difference in an earlier round of the Championship, and most bookies are expecting a repeat of that success.

We can look forward to an exciting game as both teams have their full lineups available, thanks to no suspensions or injuries.

A Draw No Bet market with Away Win selected is easily the best course of action here. By removing a tie as a possibility, we can feel more confident in the success of the bet, but the 1 odds did not take a big hit.
