Premier League Brentford enter the Carabao Cup at the second round stage. The Bees travel to Championship side Birmingham City who are 13th in their league. Brentford had a big win over Spurs at the weekend, while City are yet to win in the Championship, so our prediction is a win for Brentford.
Saturday saw Brentford get their Premier League season underway with a 3-0 win over Tottenham. it would have been four but for Igor Thiago missing a second-half penalty. They have strengthened their squad during the summer and that was shown at the weekend.
Last season saw them finish ninth in the Premier League. They only failed to qualify for Europe on goal difference. A European place had looked likely, but they only earned two points from their final three league fixtures.
They will look for another deep run in this competition after reaching the quarter-finals last season.
Birmingham City have played two games in the Championship this season and both have ended in draws.
The Blues began their season with a goalless draw at Sheffield United At the weekend, they were held to a 2-2 home draw by Bristol City, twice trailing and needing a 95th minute penalty to rescue a point.
Round one of this competition saw them win 1-0 at Swansea City.

Our Birmingham vs Brentford Prediction
It's not been an exciting start to the season for Birmingham City. The Blues are yet to record a win in two Championship games, both being drawn. Their only league goals this season have been an own goal and a penalty.
Four of the last five seasons have seen them lose at this stage in the Carabao Cup. Brentford will make plenty of changes for this game, but did get to the quarters last season. Our Birmingham v Brentford prediction is Brentford wins.
