Birmingham vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction, Tips & Prediction

Birmingham City vs Sheffield Wednesday
English League
Date: Saturday, October 17, 2024
Start at 15pm UK
Venue: St Andrew's Trillion Trophy Stadium.

Birmingham City are just one of five teams in the Championship yet to taste what defeat is like in the new season. However, his ranking is not ideal, as he won only one match and the other three ended without a winner.

This weekend the team will look to extend their unbeaten run at home to Sheffield Wednesday, a team in desperate need of points.

As you probably already know, the Owls are down twelve points before the start of the season and have managed to void five so far.

This should be an interesting game where the hosts are favorites to win at odds of 2,55.

Birmingham vs Sheffield Wednesday head to head

The most recent h2h between them was arguably one of the best games played in the league last season. The event took place at St Andrew's in February and ended with an incredible thriller of six goals and a 3-3 draw. The hosts barely managed to score a point thanks to Scott Hogan's injury-time strike.

Five of the last six times these clubs have met and ended with a BTTS selection and a lot of goals.

The Blues have hosted Sheff Wed 39 times in the past, winning 20 games and losing just seven.

Birmingham vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction

We definitely believe that Birmingham's unbeaten streak will be active after this round as well. Aitor Karanka's side are doing a good job of judiciously approaching games and defending well. So far, the “blues” have kept two games without conceding and conceded just four goals.

Sheffield Wednesday are unlikely to have big advantages with a draw here, which means they will have to go on the attack and leave plenty of room for the hosts.

It is also worth adding that Birmingham City defeated one of the strongest teams in the league, Brentford FC. This happened in the first round.

On Wednesday they lost two of their last three games in all competitions and took just one point at home to QPR. Their poor form will likely cost them dearly at St. Andrew's.
