The meeting between Birmingham City and Queens Park Rangers in the Championship is a clash of two teams level on points and still largely unbeaten this season. Both need three points to pull away from the tightly packed group at the top of the table. Birmingham City just thrashed their opponents 4-0 in their last match, and at home they score consistently. As for Queens Park Rangers, although they have drawn many matches, their defence is solid and they also just won 4-1 in their last game. The condition of the two teams is therefore not very different. This game is likely to be tight and decided by small details. If Birmingham City get the first goal from the home crowd's support, the game may open up into more of an exchange. But if Queens Park Rangers hold out until the closing stages, the pressure will shift to the home side.
