Blackburn vs Birmingham Prediction (16.08.2025)

Blackburn started the season with two consecutive losses - a narrow 0:1 defeat to West Bromwich in the league and a 1:2 loss to Bradford in the cup match. The lack of rhythm and defensive mistakes proved decisive in these games, and the search for their first win puts the hosts under pressure. Despite their strong home performance last season, their current form raises doubts about whether they will be able to get back on track.

Birmingham began the new championship with a 1:1 draw against Ipswich, after conceding an equalizing goal from a penalty in the 95th minute. The team showed organized play and resilience, but they need to show greater concentration towards the end of matches. Last season, the "Blues" dominated in League 1, and in direct clashes with Blackburn, they have a positive memory - they won the last encounter between them.

Both teams enter the match with problems in attack and a cautious style, which reduces the likelihood of an open game. The recent results of both teams show a tendency towards low scoring games, and considering the search for stability from both sides, expectations are for a clash with few goals.
