Best Tip: Birmingham to win

After looking at the bookmakers' odds and collated stats regarding both sides ahead of this League One fixture, a bet on win / draw / win for Birmingham to win in front of their own fans is what we would suggest. We predict they'll have too much for Crawley, and head-to-head (H2H) records show they have done in the past. It could be a tighter than we expect, but Birmingham to win is the bet come Friday afternoon.
