Birmingham City Preston North End betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be for Birmigham not to win. It is true that the home club has superior quality players, however, on this round they receive an "enemy" who is very motivated after a beautiful performance counting for the English League Cup. On the other hand, it should be noted that Birmigham has only one victory in the last five matches played. Thus, it won't be surprising that Preston manages to conquer at least one point in this round.

Analysis Birmingham

The home team is currently in the 11th position of the league, with 11 points won, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Fulham, by (1‑4). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Peterborough United, by (3‑0). For the league, Birmingham City won 4 points out of 12 possible points, after 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses in the last 4 home matches. They have conceded the first goal in 4 of their 8 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 8 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 12 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Birmingham comes unmotivated for this match after an away loss, by 3-0, against Peterborough. The home team usually plays in a 4-4-2, favoring a style of play with constant transitions, trying to take advantage of an opponent's error. The two arrows aimed at the “enemy's” goal will be Troy Deeney and Lukas Jutkiewicz, and the player responsible for defining and leading the attacks of his team is the Englishman Gary Gardner. It is possible that in the most central part of the field play Tahith Chong, Gary Gardner, Ryan Woods and Jérémie Bela. The home coach should have all the men capable of this challenge.

Confirmed Lineup: Matija Sarkic, George Friend, Dion Sanderson, Maxime Colin, Harlee Dean, Jérémie Bela, Ryan Woods, Ivan Šunjić, Scott Hogan, Tahith Chong.
Coach: T. Deeney.

Analysis Preston

The away team is currently in the 17th position of the league, with 9 points won, after 2 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Sheffield United, by (2‑2). In the last match, they tied in a home match against West Bromwich Albion, by (1‑1). In their last match, for the League Cup, they got a home win against Cheltenham Town by (4‑1). In the last 4 away league matches Preston North End has a record of 2 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 2 points out of 12 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 4 away matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 8 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition. In 8 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

Preston comes to this clash motivated after a home victory, by 4-1, against Cheltenham, counting for the English League Cup: Hughes, Rafferty, Maguire and Riis stamped the goals of this beautiful win. Contrary to the “enemy” of this round, Preston usually plays in a 5-3-2, where the two most advanced players are Emil Riis and Sean Maguire. When the visiting club invests in the offensive process, the team usually does it through the right aisle, taking advantage of the depth offered by the right flank Joe Rafferty. One of Preston's weaknesses is maintaining ball possession, as they lose it relatively easily. Coach Frankie McAvoy, like the home coach, should have all the players at his disposal.

Confirmed Lineup: Daniel Iversen, Sepp van den Berg, Patrick Bauer, Andrew Hughes, Jordan Storey, Benjamin Whiteman, Daniel Johnson, Ryan Ledson, Joshua Earl, Emil Riis, Sean Maguire.
