Birmingham City vs Burnley Prediction and Betting Tips | October 19, 2022 

Birmingham City will host Burnley at St. Andrew's on Wednesday (October 19) night in the Championship.

The Blues kicked off their campaign sluggishly but have redeemed themselves to climb to the top half of the table. They beat Hull City 2-0 in their last game. Troy Deeney opening the scoring from the spot after 15 minutes before Juninho Bacuna wrapped up the points with a stunning strike after the restart. Birmingham are 12th in the standings with 19 points from 14 games.

Burnley, meanwhile, have enjoyed a solid campaign under manager Vincent Kompany and will fancy themselves as early promotion favourites with a quarter of the season gone. They carried out a clinical 4-0 trouncing of Coventry City in their last game with three players getting on the scoresheet, including summer signing Anass Zaroury with his maiden goal for the club.

The visitors sit atop the standings with 25 points from 14 games and will look to continue their good run of form.

Birmingham City vs Burnley Prediction

Birmingham are on a run of back-to-back victories and have lost just one of their last seven games. They have, however, won just one of their last five home games and could struggle here.

Burnley have also won their last two games and are on a brilliant 12-game unbeaten run. They have not lost in their last six games on the road and should come out on top.
