Location: Oakwell, Barnsley

Plenty of action ahead in the midweek Premier League! Barnsley will relentlessly continue their efforts to escape the relegation zone on Tuesday when they host Birmingham City.

The visitors have been on fire of late, winning three of their last five divisional games and moving up to 15. This is just one of the reasons why we were surprised to see them marked as losers here with a price of 2,90 for the win.

Barnsley spent a lot of time hammering his way to last position at the table. A few wins in mid-December 2019 were refreshing, but the team continued to struggle.

Barnsley have only won one of their last eight league games (at home to Huddersfield Town). They have no choice but to go for the three points now as Charlton Athletic (the first team above the red line) are eight points clear.

When it comes to those teams' fixtures over the weekend, Birmingham City easily beat Bristol City 3-1 away from home, while Barnsley drew 1-1 at home to Sheffield Wednesday.

Barnsley vs Birmingham City: Head to Head

The first head-to-head meeting between them this season at St Andrews was played in August 2019.

Birmingham won comfortably 2-0 thanks to goals from Jutkiewicz and Álvaro Giménez.

In total, these two teams have played 31 times in total, with Birmingham winning 15 games and losing just 8.

Barnsley vs Birmingham City: Prediction

Barnsley will have to be aggressive here and go for a big win. This should leave a lot of space behind and result in a high-scoring game. Both teams to score must be a great banker.

As for the full-time winner, we'll go with the away win.
