Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Burnley vs Birmingham

Burnley

Burnley are currently top of the English Championship. For 23 rounds, the club was able to score 47 points - the same as Sheffield from second place. But the rest of the rivals are far behind the leaders - the gap is eight or more points.

In recent meetings, the "burgundy" almost only won. Only once in five rounds Vincent Kompany's wards lost points - 2:5 with Sheffield. Also last week, Burnley played Manchester United in the League Cup and lost 0-2.

Birmingham

Birmingham, unlike Burnley, could not go as far in the Cup. The club played all matches only within the framework of the Championship recently. In the table, the Blues are far below their opponent in this meeting - in 13th place in the middle. The wards of John Eustace have 32 points in their assets - the same number of their neighbors above and below.

Recently, "Birmingham" rarely won - twice in five rounds. In the rest of the meetings, the Blues drew twice more and lost once.
