Birmingham City vs Barcelona LIVE | Pre-season friendly

The previous clash between these clubs took place in 1960!

The EFL Championship club, Birmingham City, will be battling it out against the Spanish giants, FC Barcelona, in a club friendly contest ahead of the 2026-27 season. This will be an interesting clash, scheduled for St. Andrew’s @ Knighthead Park.

The Chris Davies-led side have secured consecutive wins in their last two friendly outings. They first took down Huddersfield Town by a scoreline of 3-1. The Blues then outplayed Solihull Moors in what was an easy 3-0 win for them.

Birmingham City FC are going to face a tough challenge out there now. They will go up against the LaLiga winners, and the slightest of errors could cost them heavily. Being at home will be a slight advantage for them.

FC Barcelona are coming in after securing a 4-1 victory against CE Europa in their first pre-season game. They won the Spanish top division title and Spanish Super Cup titles last season.

However, they continue to struggle when it comes to the UEFA Champions League. This time around, they will be looking to make a mark.

Hansi Flick’s men will be eager for another win. Against the EFL Championship, they might face some issues because the majority of the top players are not going to be there for Barca. It will be interesting to see this clash roll out.
