What channel is Leicester v Birmingham City Championship match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Leicester v Birmingham City in the Championship, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
The Championship weekend kicks off at the King Power Stadium, where Leicester City host Birmingham City on Friday evening.
Though just one point and one place separate the pair in the Championship table, the feeling at each club is very different as we approach 2025/26's first international break.
The Foxes are still adjusting to life back in the second tier and finding their feet under Marti Cifuentes, who, despite taking six points from his first three games, still has plenty of work to do.
Birmingham have hit the ground running in the Championship after last term's League One title win and have shown that their ambitions of winning back-to-back promotions are more than just talk.
Blues' only defeat of the season came against Port Vale in the Carabao Cup in midweek and they will head across the Midlands keen to make a statement against a side that was playing Premier League football just months ago.
