Birmingham won against QPR in midweek after three consecutive losses
Sheff Utd have only won one of their last four league games
Recommended bet: Sheff Utd to win
Birmingham secured their first league win since February 21st courtesy of a 1-0 victory over QPR in midweek and that result moved the Blues up to 10th place in the Championship table, just five points behind Wrexham in sixth.
Sheff Utd lost to 2-1 Norwich City in midweek despite taking the lead in the first half and that loss left them in 13th and a play-off spot is beginning to look highly unlikely.
Blades boss Chris Wilder will be looking to bounce back to winning ways as his side have won just once since February 22nd.

Prediction
The Blues ended their wait for a win in midweek and this should give them plenty of confidence heading into another home match this weekend.
However, Wilder has done a decent job at the Blades, moving them away from the drop zone to mid-table safety.
A win here could give them a slim chance of challenging for the play-offs, but they will need to be near perfect in the next few weeks.
While the loss to Norwich was a blow, expect the Blades to bounce back against the Blues.
