Prediction published on 15/01/2022, 21:03  by Indran | Modified on 15/01/2022 at 22:03 in Championship Prediction

Fulham welcomes Birmingham to Craven Cottage in this Championship match. The hosts are leading the table with 51 points while the visitors are in 18th position with 28 points. Fulham are fresh off a 6-2 drubbing of Bristol City in their last match. They are two points clear of Bournemouth and Blackburn with a game in hand. If they win this match they will open up the lead to five points. Fulham have only lost once in their last 16 matches with that loss coming against Sheffield United in December. They have won their last three matches against Birmingham but have never won four consecutive matches against them. The hosts will look to Harry Wilson for goals and assists and he has been involved in eight goals in his last three matches against Birmingham with five goals and three assists.

Birmingham will look to stop their slide down the table as they have not won in their last five league matches with three losses and two draws. During this period they were also knocked out of the FA Cup by League One team Plymouth. Birmingham have an awful away record with one win in their last 11 matches. Their inability to found the back of the net in away games is highlighted by the fact that they have only scored four goals in their last ten away matches. Birmingham have lost their last two away matches to Fulham and the last time they lost three successive away matches was in 1968.
