THE PREDICTION

With seven points accrued from their last four Championship games, Birmingham are putting up a strong fight in their battle against relegation. A trip to Barnsley however, will prove a daunting task with the Tykes arguably the form side in the division at present. The hosts have won their last six league games and sit just a point outside of the playoff places. Birmingham will not make it easy for them at Oakwell, but the relentless energy and high intensity of this Barnsley side high on momentum will likely prove overwhelm the visitors and lead them to three more points here.
