THE PREDICTION
Sheffield Wednesday visit St Andrew’s looking to bounce back from conceding a last gasp equaliser to deny them victory at home to QPR last time out. They have made some additions to their squad over the international break, with new loan signing Jack Marriott a strong bet to feature in this game at some point. However, Birmingham look a strong and settled side and the Blues are yet to taste defeat in the Championship this season, conceding just two goals in their first four games. A win for the hosts here along with a clean sheet looks the most likely outcome.
