Sutton United vs Birmingham City predictions

Birmingham will look to extend their unbeaten run to six matches when they visit Gander Green Lane to take on Sutton United.

The League One leaders have a three-point cushion at the top of the table, while Sutton are 12th in the National League after relegation from League Two last season.

Home advantage in the FA Cup is always a big factor for the teams looking to pull off a shock, but Sutton have lost half of their eight games in front of their own fans.

Birmingham have lost only three of their 17 competitive games this season and they should have far too much quality for Steve Morison's team.

Blues have scored 16 goals on the road in eight matches and they will expect to keep Sutton at bay, especially with the hosts having failed to score in three of their last five home games.

Key stat

Sutton have lost four of their eight home games in all competitions and failed to score in three of the last five.
