Brentford host Birmingham at the Brentford Community Stadium (London) in the 40th round of the Championship and the match kicks off at 7 pm (UK) on Tuesday, April 6. Read our reasons for Brentford vs Birmingham prediction and betting tips.
This weekend Brentford dropped two more vital points in their bid for automatic promotion after a third consecutive Championship draw, this time away at Huddersfield. A run of one win from their last six away contests has undermined the Bees’ second place hopes as they are sat third in the table, nine points adrift of Watford. Meanwhile, Birmingham won for the second time in three games since Lee Bowyer took charge (L1) after Scott Hogan's late penalty gave them a 1-0 victory over Swansea. The three points brought others closer to the Blues and gave them a six-point gap between Rotherham. The Millers do have four games in hand but points at the moment are hard to get for everybody.
Brentford are a side who have always seemed able to simply overwhelm opponents with their offensive talents. Last season it was the feared trio of Said Benrahma, Brian Mbeumo, and Ollie Watkins. This time around, only Mbeumo remains of that trio but the Bees have the free-scoring Ivan Toney leading the line. The trouble is, Brentford have often been found wanting at the back when it has mattered most and that was definitely the case on Saturday afternoon against the Terriers.
Lewis O’Brien was gifted an early goal after the midfielder capitalised on a dismal defensive mix-up to open the scoring, but Thomas Frank’s side were back on level terms, however, five minutes into the second period. The Bees will be extremely disappointed to drop more points, but the Town deservedly earned a point. Brentford have conceded too many odd goals this season, but they need to keep clear heads and keep believing because there's still everything to play for.
As for Birmingham, two home wins against sides in the top six will certainly boost their confidence, especially as they deserved them both. The most important thing for them now though is winning games at home – at one point the Blues had the worst home record in the league. If they can keep that form now until the end of the season they have got a good chance of staying in the division. Lee Bowyer has only been here three weeks and the players seem to follow the instructions given to them.
This win saw Blues leapfrog Coventry up into 20th-place in the standings with Rotherham remaining in 22nd. Bowyer had a number of outstanding performances on Friday night, but Hogan is a man who always runs into praise for his work rate if nothing else. He can prove a hugely important player to Bowyer going forward – he’s got that Championship experience and that eye for goal, and next season he could find his goal-scoring form of old if Bowyer can recruit some better service in the summer. As for the rest of the campaign, the Blues have just got to keep working hard and should be fine.

Brentford meet Birmingham having not previously won in the last five league matches against the Blues (D3, L2) including a 1-0 defeat at St. Andrews in the reverse fixture in September. On the other hand, Brentford have lost just one of their last 16 home league games (W9, D6), going down 0-2 against Barnsley in February, while Birmingham have earned just four points from their last 18 available away from home in the Championship (W1, D1, L4).
For Birmingham, the home form will be the key, but will surely give their best to come away with at least a point against stuttering Bees who will look to Ivan Toney to add to his 14-goal tally in his last 17 home league games for Brentford. We expect a tight game where a single goal could prove crucial.

Tucker grew up in London, more precisely in West London. But, unlike many locals, he doesn’t like big and famous teams from that part of the city. Instead, ever since he was a kid, Tucker was passionate for lower divisions. This passion was born when his uncle from Reading took him to the local derby with Aldershot Town when he was 6 and since that moment football was running through his veins. He became a huge fan of the Royals for life, and whenever he could, he goes to Madejski Stadium to enjoy the game. Apart from being a job, his sports knowledge also becomes more than useful when he is betting live on high stakes which is also his passion.
