Birmingham City vs Luton Town Prediction
Birmingham's three-game losing run has seen them plummet down the standings, leaving them with relegation fears.
Luton, meanwhile, are on a four-game winless run across competitions, putting their promotion aspirations in jeopardy. The Hatters remain in the top six on goal difference, but failure to get all three points on Saturday could see them displaced from the top six in a keenly contested playoff race.
Although either team could nick a win, the spoils could be shared in a low-scoring draw.
