Birmingham City will host Swansea City at the St. Andrew's Stadium in the EFL Championship on Tuesday (November 8).

Birmingham continued to climb towards the top half of the Championship table with a 2-1 win at Stoke City on Saturday. They are unbeaten in three games, claiming seven points from a possible nine.
With 27 points from 19 games, Birmingham are 11th in the standings but could rise as high as seventh place with all three points on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Swansea fought back from two goals down to salvage a 2-2 draw against Wigan Athletic last time out. They have now not won in their last three outings, claiming two draws and losing once since a 2-0 win over Cardiff City on October 23. Swansea are ninth in the league standings, claiming 29 points from 19 games.
