Birmingham City, Recent FormBirmingham City will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-0 away win against Hull City. They achieved 33% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Hull City's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power John Eustace will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 4 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. It's clear that with only 2 clean sheets from the last 6 matches at home, he will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late.
They've shown some decent form of late, being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches, with 3 of the 5 being victories for good measure.
Goalscorer Scott Hogan will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Birmingham City.
Burnley, Recent FormIn their previous league fixture, Burnley managed a remarkable 4-0 home win against Swansea City. During that encounter they recorded 52% of the possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents managed to hit 2 of their 6 shots on goal.
Manager Vincent Kompany will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 11 games. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 11 games in a row.
On an individual basis, Nathan Tella will be looking to cause Birmingham City some problems having scored 3 goals in Burnley's last 6 away games in the league.
It was one to forget for Birmingham City last time they met Burnley in the league, falling to a 1-2 defeat.
Goals should be on the cards for The Clarets in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Birmingham in their last 14 meetings together. When Burnley are away to The Blues in the league, they know how to find the net, with 7 goals in their last 3 meetings and an average of 2.33 per game.
In the league, Burnley have been unbeaten in the last 3 times they have visited Birmingham at St. Andrew's Stadium.
Birmingham manager John Eustace has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Harlee Dean (Muscle), George Friend (Leg), Nico Gordon (Leg), Przemysław Płacheta (Ankle) and Marc Roberts (Leg) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Burnley manager Vincent Kompany has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Darko Churlinov (Knock), Kevin Long (Knock), Scott Twine (Strain) and Ashley Westwood (Broken ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
