Result: Derby County 2-1 Birmingham City

Derby County came from behind to take all three points with a 2-1 victory against Birmingham City at Pride Park this afternoon.

Centre-back Curtis Davies put the visitors ahead less than 20 minutes in, after a headed goal from Jordan Mutch's corner.

However, Derby responded quickly as Jason Shackell found Ben Davies' free kick and headed home before the half-hour mark.

Derby forward Steven Davies then hit the back of the net from long-range to give his side the lead before the half and get their season off to a winning start at home.
