Second in League One Birmingham City host Northampton Town this weekend looking to enhance their excellent home league record. The Blues have picked up 16 points out of 18 at St. Andrews this campaign, winning all their last five league games. Their opponents, the Cobblers, lie 18th and have won just one of their six away games this season. Let's view our prediction for the match.
Free scoring Wycombe may have usurped Birmingham at the top of League One on goal difference last weekend, but the Blues still have a game in hand on the leaders and third-place Wrexham.
Since losing away to Charlton 1-0 at the start of October, Birmingham have beaten Lincoln away (3-1), Bolton at home (2-0) and in their last league game earned a 1-1 draw away to Mansfield Town. They were in FA Cup action last weekend, winning 1-0 away to Sutton United.
Northampton Town occupy 18th in the current League One table and come into this game in mixed form in the league.
However, they did suffer an FA Cup First Round shock defeat, losing 2-1 to local rivals Kettering Town last weekend.
Away from home they have struggled failing to win any of their last three on the road, losing 4-1 at Wrexham, drawing 1-1 with Stockport and a 2-1 loss to Lincoln.
