Birmingham will take on Norwich in the Championship at the St Andrew's Trillion Trophy Stadium on Saturday. Norwich have more or less secured a spot in the playoffs with one game to go - they are currently fifth with 73 points. For the hosts, this is their last chance to avoid relegation as they are 22nd in the standings with 47 points.
Norwich only need to avoid a defeat on the final matchday in the league stage to secure a spot in the playoffs. They are unbeaten in their last five matches so they will hope keep that run intact. Birmingham registered a crucial win over Coventry in April and have since avoided defeat in their last two games. They will be hoping to pull off an upset on the last matchday.
