This weekend, Birmingham City vs Queens Park Rangers predictions and betting tips close the 3pm Championship fixtures at St Andrew’s, where two sides inside the top eight go head to head.
Birmingham sit fifth and thrashed Preston 4-0 last time out, though they have drawn four of their five home games. QPR are fifth and arrive off a 4-1 home win over Derby and are unbeaten on the road with one of the division’s meanest defences.
Anthony Eadson sees two well-organised, in-form sides cancelling each other out and has built his selections around a tight game.
Premium Tips
Two Premium Tips for a St Andrew’s meeting between two sides inside the top eight.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| August Priske to score anytime | 15/8 (bet365) | August Priske has been Birmingham’s leading scorer with four goals in nine games and is the man the Blues look to at St Andrew’s. Birmingham thumped Preston 4-0 last time out and will fancy their chances of breaking down a QPR side that, for all its defensive strength, has conceded in most games it has faced. Priske’s movement and finishing give the hosts a focal point, and a home game against a top-eight rival is a good chance for him to add to his tally. At 15/8 the forward is a fair price to find the net in a game both sides should score in. |
| Rumarn Burrell to score anytime | 5/2 (Paddy Power) | Rumarn Burrell has two goals for a QPR side that arrives at St Andrew’s in confident mood after a 4-1 win over Derby. Rangers are unbeaten on the road and carry more of a threat than their reputation as a defensive outfit suggests, and Burrell offers them pace and a goal on the break. Birmingham have won just one of their five home games, drawing the other four, so QPR will fancy their chances of getting on the scoresheet. At 5/2 Burrell is a generous price to find the net for the visitors in a game that looks likely to produce goals at both ends. |
