We said: Birmingham City 2-1 Stoke City

Birmingham have improved offensively during the last few matches and could display their progression against a Stoke side who are in the midst of a woeful winless run. The Potters looked more organised under the stewardship of Schumacher last time out, but we are predicting a Boxing Day defeat for the visitors at St Andrew's. Read more.
