Aston Villa – Birmingham Prediction & Preview and Betting Tips (23.04.2017)

Prediction for Aston Villa – Birmingham

Aston Villa to win @ 1.94

In the Football League Championship, the second highest English game box, the 44th matchday will take place this weekend. In this article, we look at the “Second City Derby”, which is the most popular in Birmingham and is being fought between the two traditional clubs Aston Villa and Birmingham City, and will be kicked off at Villa Park on Sunday, 23 April at 13:00. The Aston Villa Football Club has already run its season. After the relegation in the last season, the goal was the direct re-emergence, which can not be reached both theoretically and practically in a total of three outstanding games. The Birmingham City Football Club, on the other hand, still faces the descent into the third place. To avoid this, the city derby has to win. Otherwise the first relegation place already threatens on this day. We still see the Villans just in front and decide for a tip on Heimsieg to regular betting.

Aston Villa

Aston Villa has a balanced 15-13-15 record, 58 points and a goal ratio of 45:46 in the table center field, more precisely in the twelfth place. The excitement at Villa is likely to be largely out of this season, as the striking direct rebound is no longer possible with fifteen points behind sixth place and the lead over the relegation points is eleven points comfortable. Nevertheless, it is to be assumed that the team of coach Steve Bruce, especially in the upcoming Second City Derby once again give everything to his fans a conciliatory season exit.

Aston Villa is currently in eighth place with a 4-0-1 record in the Formheim table. After four clear victories against Bristol City (2-0), Sheffield Wednesday (2-0), Norwich City (2-0) and Queens Park Rangers (1-0), they beat Reading FC in the last home game a week ago, Who currently still have chances of one of the two direct ascent places in the Premier League, a clear 3: 3 defeat. Only two days later, the Bruce-Elf lost the last game at Fulham FC also with 1: 3.

Coach Steve Bruce has a few injury-related failures to complain about before the end of the season, but none of the regular players are affected. With Gabriel Agbonlahor, Birkir Bjarnason and Neil Taylor, he is only missing supplementary players.

Birmingham

The Birmingham City FC, with an 11-14-18 record, 47 points and a goal difference of 42:63 is only on the 20th place and still has to fear the class retention. Although the lead to the first descent is three points, the elf of Harry Redknapp, who has taken over as Gianfranco Zola, can be found right there again in a defeat in the upcoming city derby. It is for The Blues to take at least one point against Villa.

In the shape-up table, Birmingham is currently on a good eighth place with a balanced 1-3-1 score. The 2: 1 victory at the Wolverhampton Wanderers has meanwhile also been two months back. In the two games that followed, Cardiff City and Ipswich Town were only one-to-one draw. The penultimate away game at Brighton & Hove Albion FC, which is now a newcomer to the Premier League, was quite clear with 1: 3 lost. On the last weekend, The Blues missed a big point, as Birmingham were not able to score a 1-1 draw at the end of Rotherham United FC. The last game took place at home against Burton Albion FC during the week and lost with a 0: 2, although Birmingham had the bigger play.

The personal situation of coach Harry Redknapp looks similar to his opponent. Michael Morrison is one of his key players. Added to this are the injuries of Josh Cogley and Clayton Donaldson, who have so far only come from the bank and can be replaced adequately.
