Looking to continue on what has been a real purple patch of late, Birmingham City will host Nottingham Forest from behind closed doors on Wednesday night.

Starting with the hosts, enjoying what has been nothing short of a stellar run of form, Birmingham have continued to skyrocket their way up the table. In their 42 Championship matchups so far this season, they have recorded 12 wins, 12 draws and 18 defeats, scoring 32 and conceding 50 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 48, The Blues open the midweek fixtures sat 19th in the table and now holding a nine-point buffer from dropping into the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 1-0 win away at Rotherham, Birmingham have collected 10 points from their last four championship matchups. It should also be highlighted, along with enjoying their best run in recent memory, Wednesday’s hosts have recorded a clean sheet in each of those four Championship contests.

As for the visitors, after watching their unbeaten run come to an abrupt end last time out, Nottingham Forest have the feel of a club that are seeking some stability. In their 42 Championship matchups so far this season, they have recorded 12 wins, 13 draws and 17 defeats, scoring 34 and conceding 41 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 49, The Reds open the midweek fixtures sat 16th in the table and seven points adrift of finding a route into the top-12. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-0 defeat against Huddersfield Town on home soil, Nottingham Forest saw their four-match unbeaten run come to an end. However, it is worth highlighting, with 13 of Wednesday’s guests’ last 14 Championship contests finishing with under 2.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome in midweek.
