Birmingham City v Club Brugge tips – Blues can complete double

Birmingham City will look to take a step closer to the next stage of the Europa League when they host Club Brugge on Thursday night.

Despite playing their domestic football in the second tier of the English game, Birmingham City proudly sit top of Group H with a record of two wins and one defeat at the halfway stage. Club Brugge share an identical record but Blues hold the edge after getting the better of the Belgian side in the first group meeting between these two teams. Joseph Akpala handed Club Brugge the lead after just three minutes but David Murphy and Chris Wood netted in a superb fightback as Birmingham City returned to England with all the points.

With that result in mind it is not surprising to see Birmingham City being made 11/8 favourites (Betfred) to complete the double over the Belgians, while Club Brugge are 11/5 (Victor Chandler) to get revenge. The draw can be backed at odds of 12/5 (bet365).

Chris Wood and Marlon King are both 6/1 (Paddy Power and bet365 respectively) to open the scoring, with the pair 2/1 (both Coral) to net anytime. Club Brugge forward Akpala will be looking to find the net against Blues once more, and he is 7/1 (Ladbrokes) to do that with the first goal. Akpala is 15/8 (bet365) to score anytime.

This match comes under bet365’s “Bore Draw” promotion and Victor Chandler’s “Don’t Hit The Bar” promotion. For bet365, place a pre-match correct score, half-time/full-time or scorecast bet and if the match finishes 0-0 all losing bets on those markets will be refunded. For Victor Chandler, place a five-fold or upwards on 90 minute (win/draw/win) football markets and if you have only one losing selection you will be refunded your stake as a free bet.
