Despite Birmingham City having already secured the League One title, backing Blackpool with a +0.5 goal Asian Handicap start at 1.90 appears a shrewd bet. This selection covers Blackpool winning or drawing at home.

Blackpool's recent form at Bloomfield Road supports this confidence, having covered the +0.5 line in 17 of their last 20 home games and 8 of their last 10. Their head-to-head record against Birmingham also offers encouragement, covering this line in 4 of their last 6 encounters, including a goalless draw at St Andrew's earlier in the season.

While Birmingham enjoyed a comfortable 4-0 victory in their last outing, Blackpool themselves secured a respectable 1-1 away draw against Wigan. Given Blackpool's solid home record and Birmingham potentially easing off after clinching the title, the Seasiders are well-placed to avoid defeat.

Prediction: Blackpool +0.5 Asian Handicap
