Birmingham vs Stoke: Top Free Betting Tips

Birmingham City aims to return to their winning streak when they line up at St. Andrew’s Stadium against Stoke City on Monday, 10 April. The Blues dropped two points against Reading in the last game while the Potters faced a defeat against Bristol City.

Match Result Prediction: Draw

Birmingham City has three wins, one defeat and a draw in the last five games. The Blues have also won the previous two games at St. Andrew’s Stadium in a row. However, Stoke City have also been favourable away from Bet 365 Stadium. The Potters registered three victories in the last four fixtures on the road, ending the remaining one in a draw. Three of the previous five meetings between these teams have ended without a winner. Given the club’s current performances, we predict equal competition here as well and expect a draw at the end.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Three of the previous four H2Hs of these teams have concluded with Under 2.5 Goals. Despite getting only one defeat in the last five games, Birmingham City has averaged only one goal per game in that course. Stoke City have rattled the net nine times in the same duration. However, the Potters hit the back of the net only four times in the same number of previous H2Hs against the Blues. Moreover, Birmingham City has also claimed two consecutive clean sheets at home before this game. Hence, a total of Under 2.5 Goals will be our next pick for this match.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-1 Draw

Birmingham City scored only one goal in each of their previous three league affairs. Stoke City have scored multiple goals in two of the recent five Championship fixtures but they have a difficult defensive challenge ahead. The Blues have conceded only four goals in the same number of the previous games in the second division, keeping three clean sheets as well. The Potters have also shipped in only one goal per game in four of the last five games away from Bet365 Stadium. Based on these numbers, we predict the teams to share a 1-1 scoreline at the end.

Birmingham vs Stoke: Form, Recent Games, and News

Birmingham Preview

After two consecutive victories, the Blues were clipped to a 1-1 draw in the last game against Reading at Madejski Stadium. Birmingham conceded an early goal in the seventh minute but Lukas Jutkiewicz’s strike equalised the score in the 29th minute to avoid the defeat. Birmingham’s preparation will also take a hit coming into this game with five players listed under injury.

Players to Watch: Juninho Bacuna (Birmingham)

There are a couple of players we have in mind for this game. First off, we have Juninho Bacuna, who is a striker but has mostly been involved in yellow cards this season. He has 11 in 37 games this season. We feel like it will be the better option than Scot Hogan, who is the teams' top scorer this season with 10 goals in 34 games.

Stoke Preview

The Potters dropped their five-match undefeated streak in the last game with a home defeat against Bristol City. Stoke City led 1-0 with Nick Powell's goal in the 36th minute but lost three points by conceding two late goals in the second half. Stoke readiness will also be slightly marred by the absence of Axel Tuanzebe due to injury.

Players to Watch: Jacob Brown (Stoke)

This will be a very tough game and we expect a good number of yellow cards here. Therefore, we also have a player from Stoke that is suitable for this betting market – Jacob Brown. He has received 8 yellows in 35 games since the start of the season. He is also one of the teams' top goalscorers, so you can also bet on him to score here.
