Birmingham City head coach Chris Davies emphasized the need to improve the team's away form as they prepare for the 2026-27 season. Last season, Birmingham finished 10th in the Championship and struggled significantly on the road, collecting only 20 points from away matches. With their first match of the new season against Sheffield United on Saturday, Davies expressed his intent to develop a more aggressive tactical approach in away games. The team has made limited new signings during the transfer window but is looking to build on a strong home record while addressing its scoring issues on the road.
