Birmingham City vs Reading: How to watch on TV, live stream and kick off time

Birmingham are back! Can John Eustace’s men enter a difficult festive period on a high note, or will Christmas be cancelled for the Blues?

In their last game, Birmingham played out a 0-0 draw with Blackpool. Clear-cut chances were few and far between for both teams - between them, they only managed a single shot on target.

On the other hand, Reading were victorious at the weekend as they defeated cash-strapped Coventry City. A second half goal from Amadou Mbengue was enough to give the Royals the 1-0 win.

Birmingham are currently 14th in the Championship table with 29 points. The Blues are only five points away from the playoffs - however, they’re also only five points above the relegation zone.
