Blackburn meets Birmingham on Saturday, in a round of the English Premier League.
Both Blackburn and Birmingham have the same amount of points 34, and both teams are in danger of relegation, only 2 points away from the danger zone.
Blackburn was able to pick up a point in the last round of Premier League against Arsenal on Emirates. Given the team’s position and away record that was quite an achievement. At home Blackburn holds a record at the moment of W6 D5 L4, scoring 19 goals and conceding 13 in those games. Blackburn are unbeaten in 4 out of the last 5 home games, recording 2 victories, a loss and 2 draw games. The team has a good statistics against Birmingham, winning 6 of the 9 games at home, and drawing the other 3.
Birmingham has had a rough season, considering their spot in the table, but the team was able to win Carling Cup, which is a great achievement. Currently, Birmingham are right below Blackburn taking the 15th spot, with an away record of W2 D6 L6, scoring 14 goals and conceding 23 in those games. The team has won 2 of the last 7 away games, draw 2 of the remaining 5 and lost the rest. In their last visit against Wigan, Birmingham was able to lead with 1:0, but eventually lost with a late goal in the 91st minute.
An interesting fact is that the last 6 game between both teams have ended with the score of 2:1, with a victory for the home side. The correct score bet of ’2-1′ is priced at 8.50, something to think about.
While this game looks like a 3-way match, where each team can grab the victory, while the draw is also an option, I will back Blackburn here. The home statistics against Birmingham is quite overwhelming to be ignored, W6 D3 L0, winning the last 3 Premier League games in the past 3 years, and being unbeaten in 9 games in the last 11 years. Good luck betting.
