Match preview

Stoke City host Birmingham City in the Championship on Saturday afternoon at Bet365 Stadium.

This season Birmingham City have eight wins, five draws and two defeats from 15 league matches, a goal difference of +14. That is three league wins in a row for them. The visitors rarely play in tight games: 11 of their 15 have had three goals or more.

Stoke City have 29 points from 15 league games (W9 D2 L4), with 24 scored and 18 let in. They have won their last three league games. The hosts are unbeaten in five (four wins, one draw) and won 2–1 away at Portsmouth in their latest game.

When they last met at Bet365 Stadium, in September 2025, Stoke City won.

Our AI prediction is a 1–1 draw, with both sides on the scoresheet. Both sides have scored in ten of Stoke City's 15 league games and nine of Birmingham City's 15. No prediction is guaranteed; it is one view of how the game could go. Kick-off is at 15:00 UK time.
