Lyle Taylor is Birmingham's outstanding striker. He has seven goals and two assists in 27 games played in the current season.

The 20-year-old midfielder Brennan Johnson has made 38 appearances for the team this season. He has scored 14 goals and made seven assists, making him a key player for Nottingham as they look to return to the Premier League.

Since 2015 they have met 13 times in head-to-head duels, with Nottingham winning five, Birmingham three and the remaining five ending in draws.

On the other hand, Birmingham's outlook is quite gray. The team is in the 18th position in the table with 45 points, which definitely takes them away from the Premier League. Of their last five matches, they have won two, drawn two and lost one.

They are in fifth place in the standings with 64 points and have two games less than the rest of the teams. At the moment, they are in the playoff zone for promotion. They have won their last four games, three of them by a landslide, and today may be no different.

The match will be held at The City Ground, the home of Nottingham Forest, located in the city of the same name in England. It opened to the public in 1898 and has a capacity for 30,602 spectators.
