Birmingham Draw no Bet
Birmingham were beaten 3-0 at leaders Burnley on Tuesday evening, though the Blues have a chance to bounce back at the first time of asking when they host relegation candidates Hull at St. Andrew’s. Birmingham have lost just three times in 12 assignments at that venue this term and they will believe they can make home advantage count again here. Hull have drawn three games on the spin since the restart however, so it might be safer to side with the hosts in the draw no bet stakes.
Under 2.5 Goals
Hull kicked off their trio of stalemates since the campaign’s resumption with a 0-0 draw at Watford and to their credit, the Tigers have looked a little more solid defensively since the break. Offensively, they are still relatively toothless however, and as a consequence, each of their last three matches have featured two or fewer goals. Hull’s risk-averse style of play should keep the scoreline down at St. Andrew’s on Friday and bettors are advised to consider a stake on under 2.5 goals as a result.

Birmingham vs Hull Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for Friday’s Championship contest between Birmingham and Hull below.
Birmingham
Defender Harlee Dean is still working his way back from a calf issue, though Friday's game will likely come too early. In midfield, Przemyslaw Placheta is nursing a shin complaint and faces another couple of weeks on the sidelines. Birmingham are all the way down in 15th position in the table, though they are just three points outside the playoff zone.
Predicted Lineup for Birmingham: Ruddy – Sanderson, Roberts, Trusty – Bielik, Colin, Bacuna, Mejbri, Emmanuel – Deeney, Chong
Hull
Hull City will be without the services of midfielders Dimitrios Pelkas and Vaughn Covil this week, while attacker Benjamin Tetteh has a hamstring complaint and will be out for another short spell. Hull drew 1-1 with relegation rivals Blackpool in their last outing.
Predicted Lineup for Hull: Ingram – Christie, Jones, McLoughlin, Greaves – Woods, Seri, Longman, Tufan, Slater – Estupinan
Player to Watch – Auston Trusty
Auston Trusty has been a defensive mainstay for Birmingham this season and as one of the team’s most-reliable performers, the 24-year-old could be an important player again on Friday. Trusty is on loan with the Blues from Premier League giants Arsenal for the duration of the campaign, though it remains to be seen if he has a long-term future with the Gunners.
