Birmingham City and West Bromwich Albion are focusing on achieving their goals at opposite ends of the Championship table between now and the end of the season.
For The Blues, after a season dominated by managerial changes and a struggle to find any level of consistency, the main aim is to stave off any threat of relegation under new boss Tony Mowbray and preserve their second tier status.
The Baggies are hoping to escape the Championship via the front door between now and May as they push for a place in the play-offs and give themselves a chance to secure a return to the Premier League.
With tension increasing over the next three months and the stakes getting higher and higher with every passing week, there is sure to be plenty of passion on display from both sides and some players will fall foul of the match officials as they give everything for the cause.
