The Birmingham club continues to fight for a place in the European competitions. It's worth highlighting some interesting statistics regarding the coaches of both teams. The last three meetings between Julen Lopetegui and Unai Emery ended in a 1:1 draw. However, the statistics could change in favor of the visitors.
