Liverpool has to make a big win on the crucial match against Birmingham City to keep hopes of their Champions League  alive for next season. 

For Birmingham,  there is not any  pressure to win this match . They’ve already acquired their goal for premier League survival.     
 If they want  to catch up to fourth place Tottenham.  Liverpool has to win this match at any price. 




Kevin Phillips, Goalscorer  probably knew nothing about the goal attributed to him--the 250th goal of his career--until the ball, having deflected off his head, found its way through the hapless hands of Arsenal ‘keeper Pedro Almunia, and dropped inside the goalmouth.


Still, McLeish thought the final result a fair one. "I think we deserved it. It was a kick in the guts when they went ahead with ten minutes to go, but again we showed that never say die attitude and Kevin came up trumps again.”


 Birmingham spelling of success


Mired in ninth place on 45 points and with only six games remaining, the Blues have little chance of progressing up the league table to any significant degree.

This, according to Alex McLeish, was the main objective he was given, and by that measure there is no doubt that Birmingham’s season has been successful.



Liverpool’s  poor record 

In contrast to Birmingham’s home record, Liverpool’s away record is very poor indeed. They haven’t won a league game away since they beat Aston Villa on December 29. They’ve now gone six away games without a win and so their visit to St. Andrews this weekend is unlikely to be a stroll in the park.

The two clubs last met in November at Anfield and the Reds were fortunate to achieve a 2-2 draw with Alex McLeish’s men. A controversial penalty gave Liverpool the equalizer.
