Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Our calculations suggest that it's fairly unlikely that this game will deliver 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics align with KO's predictive algorithm on this one. Stevenage and Birmingham haven't typically treated their fans to a high volume of goals of late, whether that be in League One individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, without a compelling favourite win or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.22.
