Birmingham v Blackburn Odds

The Birmingham v Blackburn odds for this Birmingham Blackburn Premier Leaguecrucial end of season encounter is very close and confirm that both teams need to win. If Fulham win away at Portsmouth in these final matches of the Premier League, then Birmingham are relegated, it is as simple as that for Birmingham. If Fulham win then no matter what Birmingham do against Blackburn, they will be relegated. That is the harsh inescapable truth. However if Fulham either draw or lose, then Birmingham will have every chance to stay up, that is of course if Reading don’t win away against already relegated Fulham. It’s complicated isn’t it?

In essence, Birmingham should ignore the possibilities and put aside any other thoughts other than winning ones! Their only task is to win this match and hope that the other results go in their favour. If they can do that then this game at St Andrews has all the makings of a classic, that will end in either tears of joy or tears of despair, it is a match not to miss.

Birmingham are odds on favourites to win and they should be heartened by the fact that they have gone six games unbeaten at St Andrews, although it should be said that four of these results were draws. Blackburn on the other hand have lost three of their last six away matches but they are coming off a 3-1 win against Derby last week. They also know that they still have a chance of qualifying for the Inter-Toto Cup that could qualify them for the EUFA Cup next season.

So a win is vital for both teams which explains why the betting is so close. Birmingham are 5/6, Blackburn 2/1 and the draw is 5/2.
