Birmingham will be optimistic about their chances of securing a surprise win on Tuesday when they face Premier League side Fulham.
The Blues could not maintain their position in the Championship and have now competed in the First League. Birmingham’s performance last season fell short of expectations, resulting in their relegation from the Championship. They finished in 22nd place, narrowly missing out on survival by just one point behind Plymouth. However, the end of the season displayed a glimmer of hope with two victories and two draws.
Fulham has faced ongoing challenges in assembling a team that aligns with the club’s aspirations, as stability has proven difficult to achieve. Their primary goal is to preserve their Premier League position, which they have successfully achieved, although not without some challenges.
