Sides from opposite ends of the Championship table clash on Tuesday evening, as Birmingham City welcome Norwich City to St Andrew's.
With just one win from seven matches so far this term - including EFL Cup elimination by the Canaries - the hosts are already trailing in the wake of their visitors, who won again at the weekend.
Arriving in the Midlands with confidence high and boasting a reliable source of goals, Norwich can deepen their hosts' woes by taking home the points. Birmingham's lack of precision in the opposition box means their winless run will roll on into September.

Following their biggest domestic victory since the 2015-16 season, Burnley return to Turf Moor for a date with Millwall in Championship action on Tuesday.
The Clarets extended their unbeaten run to four straight matches in all competitions with a 5-1 win over Wigan Athletic this past weekend, while the Lions went goalless for a second successive fixture, losing 1-0 to Reading.
Milwall have looked timid and afraid when playing on the road, failing to score in seven league fixtures away from home last season, and without a goal in three matches this month in all competitions as the visitors.
The Clarets have had plenty of success versus Millwall over the past decade and have started burying more and more of their chances with eight goals in their past two domestic encounters.

Cardiff City will attempt to end a three-game winless run when they play host to Luton Town for a Championship contest on Tuesday.
The visitors, meanwhile, have won only one of their seven competitive games this season, although they have taken four points from their previous two encounters.
Although both sides have struggled to consistently find the net this season, with four points from their last two games, we think that Luton will have the confidence to claim a narrow victory on Tuesday.

Queens Park Rangers will look to clinch back-to-back victories on Tuesday when they play host to Hull City in a Championship contest.
The visitors, meanwhile, will attempt to continue their promising start to the season after losing just one of their opening six league games.
Hull have won all three of their home games this season, but are yet to win on the road, and we think that they will settle for a point in Tuesday's meeting with QPR.

Wigan Athletic and West Bromwich Albion will both aim to return to winning ways in the Championship on Tuesday, when they square off at the DW Stadium.
The hosts were thrashed by Burnley at the weekend, while their visitors failed to post a second league win of the season away at Huddersfield Town.
Although they are lacking confidence given their underwhelming start, West Brom should still have enough quality to get past their hosts, and we back Bruce's men to escape with all three points.

The top two sides in the Championship table at this early stage of the season will do battle on Tuesday, as Sheffield United welcome Reading to Bramall Lane.
The visitors currently sit at the summit of the division after three straight wins, while the Blades are just a point worse off having most recently drawn away at Luton Town.
Reading will arrive with plenty of confidence and an exciting affair is surely on the cards, but Sheffield United's formidable home form could be too much to overcome, and we back Heckingbottom's side to get over the line.

Watford will look to end a four-game winless run in all competitions when they welcome Middlesbrough to Vicarage Road on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Middlesbrough will be aiming to collect consecutive victories after recording their first win of the season on Tuesday.
Although Middlesbrough recorded their first win of the season on Saturday, we think that a Watford side who have won two of their three home games this term will edge out Boro in midweek.
