Millwall are unbeaten in six league away games this season
Birmingham have not won any of their last eight home matches against the Lions
Recommended bet: Millwall draw no bet
Birmingham have not taken the Championship by storm this season after romping to the League One title with 111 points last term, but they are settling into life at the higher level and produced their best result so far in Saturday's 4-0 home win over Portsmouth.
A top-half position after winning five and losing five of their first 13 games means Chris Davies' team still have everything to play for, but they will be tested to the full when fourth-placed Millwall visit St Andrew's.
The Lions are unbeaten on the road after winning at Norwich, Sheffield United and QPR and were only denied a fifth successive victory by a late Oxford equaliser in a 2-2 draw on Saturday.

Team news
Birmingham are set to still be missing Ethan Laird, Scott Wright and Lee Buchanan, while Patrick Roberts will have to be assessed after picking up a knock, with Keshi Anderson or Kyogo Furuhashi potentially coming into the side.
Bright Osayi-Samuel is also in contention to start after being on the bench against Pompey, but Jack Robinson is still suspended.
Millwall could be without Femi Azeez, who went off after 35 minutes at Oxford on Saturday, while Ryan Leonard is another injury concern.
Camiel Neghil is a candidate to come into the starting line-up.
The stats
Both teams have scored in Millwall's last five away games and the Lions have scored in all eight of their away games in all competitions this season.
Four of Birmingham's five league wins this season have been by a single goal.
There have been four or more goals in City's last three Championship home games.
All three of Millwall's league defeats this term have come at home, but the Lions have scored in the first half of their last five matches.

Prediction
Millwall have been a real bogey team for Birmingham, with the Blues winning only one of their last 11 meetings and that came at the Den in April 2023, with the West Midlands side failing to win any of their last eight home games against the Londoners.
This year's Lions are stronger than most of the teams that have preceded them and look capable of adding to that successful run.
They merit at least a draw-no-bet wager as they head up the M6.
Birmingham have recorded two good wins in their last three outings, having also triumphed at Preston, but their last two home performances before the win over Portsmouth were certainly not of the calibre to overcome Millwall.
They needed a late equaliser to draw 2-2 with rock-bottom Sheffield Wednesday before losing 3-2 to Hull.
Millwall's only defeat in their last 10 games was to leaders Coventry and they look overpriced for their visit to Birmingham.
