Preview
Birmingham City and Barnsley meet at St. Andrew's Stadium, in a match for the 19th round of the Championship.

The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 01‑01‑2014, and ended in a draw by (1‑1). The home/away factor is worth special atention, since although this is a match between 4th and 18th of the league table, it’s also a match between the 5th best team in home matches and the 12th best in away matches.
