Match preview

Our model sees little between the sides: West Brom 40%, the draw 26%, Birmingham 34%.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 2.47 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 2.6 goals in total (1.40 for West Brom, 1.25 for Birmingham), which points to Under 2.5 as a secondary angle.

West Brom sit 4th on 24 points; Birmingham are 6th on 23.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
