Team Previews, Form and Standout Players - A chance for the Blues to go five points clear

Birmingham City will not miss a chance to get them another step closer to their return to Championship football.

Birmingham City Preview

Birmingham City Predicted Line-ups: Bailey Peacock-Farrell; Alex Cochrane, Krystian Bielik, Christoph Klarer, Taylor Gardner-Hickman; Paik Seung-ho, Tomoki Iwata; Emil Hansson, Lyndon Dykes, Willum Þór Willumsson; Jay Stansfield.

Birmingham City are looking extremely sharp this season. Even in moments where they seem to be out of the game, like when they were two goals behind in their most recent clash with Peterborough United, they’re still finding a way. If a team wants to win a league title, they need to be able to win in several ways. Birmingham are doing just that.

Jay Stansfield has been the man of the moment since his return to Birmingham (with three goals already for his new/old club), however, our player to watch is Willum Thor Willumson. The Icelandic midfielder arrived from G.A Eagles in Netherlands in the summer, and has been monumental so far.

His goal started the comeback against Peterborough on the weekend for starters. In addition, he is an excellent presence in the midfield. His versatility allows him to cover so many areas of the pitch and act as a constant goal threat.

Huddersfield Town preview

Huddersfield Town Predicted Line-up: Jacob Chapman; Nigel Lonwijk, Tom Lees, Matty Pearson; Jonathan Hogg; David Kasumu, Antony Evans, Jaheim Headley, Brodie Spencer; Josh Koroma, Callum Marshall.

In their last three fixtures, Huddersfield Town have conceded seven and scored just twice. Reading, Blackpool and Northampton have all gotten the better of the recent Championship side. Now up against a title favourite, there are not a lot of people baking them for Tuesday night’s clash.

They’ve only conceded two more than the home side. But the four less goals scored has been a major difference heading into this tie.

Head-to-head stats: Birmingham City vs Huddersfield Town

The last time these two met, was in the Championship last season. The most recent game was drawn 1-1, but it was Birmingham City that pulled out a 4-1 home win under John Eustace before his eventual sacking. It’s crazy to think that the Blues are in League One after that period under Eustace, but such is the nature of the beautiful game.

Huddersfield Town have lost their last two trips to Knighthead Park.

Betting Tips for Birmingham City vs Huddersfield Town - A Worrying night for Duff

Michael Duff is certainly under pressure at the moment. The Huddersfield Town manager has seen his side lose their last three games, during a campaign where success is essential.

We’re backing Birmingham City to win this match. They are the best side in the third tier this season. They’ve spent a lot, but they’ve spent well. Chris Davies has them playing some fantastic and well thought-out football. Huddersfield will not be able to deal with the attacking dominance the Blues possess.
