Blackpool crestBlackpool, Recent Form

Home

The Blackpool players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Wigan Athletic recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 29%, while racking up 4 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target, in contrast to the numbers reached by Wigan Athletic, who had 18 shots on goal with 3 on target.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   With no goals in 3 of their last 6 matches at home, they are showing signs of a problem finding the net at their home ground.  Michael Appleton will be concerned about his leaky defence after they have failed to keep a clean sheet at home for 9 games in a row.  

Blackpool will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row.  

Jerry Yates will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Blackpool.

Away
most recent

The Birmingham City squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 home defeat against Sunderland, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed.  In that game they had 59% possession and managed 22 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Sunderland who had 6 attempts and 4 on target.  

It seems pretty certain that John Eustace will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 8 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 7 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped.  Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches.  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.  

It's been a mixed run of form for Birmingham recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.  

Scott Hogan will be hoping to create problems for Blackpool in this one, having scored 5 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Birmingham City.  

Blackpool vs. Birmingham City Head to head

Birmingham City will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Blackpool, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 6-1 defeat.  

Blackpool have scored in each of their last 8 games at home in the league against The Blues.  

Birmingham has a poor track record in the league when they visit Blackpool, losing in their last 2 games.
