Birmingham V Derby

Two teams stuck in the bottom four and while survival is all but gone for Derby, Birmingham still have a very realistic chance of surviving, They has performed admirably in their previous 3 games against Arsenal, Manchester Utd and Chelsea but were quite shocking against Sunderland on Tuesday night. They went down 2 – 0 and if they are to go down at the end of the season then they will look back to Tuesday night as they day when they threw it away.

But, if ever a team needed a chance to get back on track, then they have been presented with the perfect opportunity today. Derby are just a very poor side who will battle on but still not achieve anything notable. The championship has beckoned for a long time now and with only 8 points taken from a possible 72 says it all really.

Scoring has been their major problem in recent times for Brum despite having strikers like Garry O'Connor, Cameron Jerome, Mikael Forssell and January signing James McFadden but surely they will have too much attacking power for Derby, who have conceded 30 goals in 12 games on the road.

Verdict

Birmingham will look to bounce back from recent defeats and take 3 points which is vital for them. They won’t be afraid of Derby and as long as they are not too complacent should win this one easy.
