Birmingham vs Preston: Top Free Betting Tips

Birmingham City has followed a losing pattern in the league and faces the challenge of Preston North End in the next league fixture on Saturday, 21 January. The Lilywhites will be aiming to continue their winning pattern away from home.

Match Result Prediction: Preston to Win

Birmingham City lost the previous four league outings in a row and faced three defeats in the last four home attempts.  Preston North End have also registered only one victory in the last five league outings but they have three duels in the last four away attempts. The Lilywhites have also dominated Birmingham in the visiting H2Hs with three victories in the last five duels, losing only once. Hence we back Preston fancy their chances in this game to add three points.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Birmingham City has found the back of the net only three times in the last four league outings. In opposition, Preston North End have also managed an average of only one goal per game in the last five attempts. Adding more to this, all of the previous four H2H meetings of these teams have ended with below 2.5 goals. Based on the current forms, we don’t see the teams featuring a high-scoring total in this game as well.

Correct Score Prediction: 0-1 to Preston

Birmingham City has failed to hit the target in three of the last four meetings with Preston and missed the target in two of the previous four duels. The Lilywhites have hit the back of the net in four of the last five away attempts. But the team has also been unable to score more than once in the last five league outings and the previous five H2Hs against Birmingham. So we expect the Invincibles to take a narrow lead of 0-1 in this game.
