11th--placed Birmingham City can move to within a point of the promotion play-offs if they beat Watford on Tuesday. City are in top form at home and will bid for a fourth straight win as they host Watford who are 15th in the Championship. Read our match prediction below.
Birmingham have won five of their eight league games this season with just one loss to Hull City. Their last three home league fixtures have produced wins over Portsmouth, Millwall and Norwich with four goals scored in each of the wins.
Their most recent match saw them draw 1-1 at West Brom. Just one of their last five league games has been lost.
Watford are only a point behind City but of their 24 points, only six points have been earned away from Vicarage Road. Their only away league win of the season came in their last game with a 3-2 win at Derby. Since then they've been held to a 1-1 home draw by Preston North End.
That extended their unbeaten run to five games but three of those have ended level. Four of their eight away Championship games have ended in defeat. Only eight goals have been scored with 12 conceded.
We tip Birmingham to win this match.

Our Birmingham vs Watford Prediction
Birmingham City are scoring goals for fun at home with 12 in their last three games at St Andrews. They are only four points behind the final promotion play-off position and will be going all out to get a sixth home league win of the season.
Watford will go ahead of City if they can win this match. They also have a strong home record but on the road it's been a struggle with just one win at Derby. A side bet on both teams scoring could win but our main Birmingham v Watford prediction is Birmingham wins.
