Derby County maintained their good form of form with a 2-1 victory over Birmingham City away from home on Saturday afternoon.

The Rams headed into the match against Birmingham at St. Andrew’s on the back of a 4-2 victory over Fulham at the iPro Stadium.

Gary Rowett’s side took the lead against Birmingham after just three minutes through a Tomasz Kuszczak own goal.

Che Adams equalised for the Blues midway through the second half, but Tom Ince scored the winner for the Rams in the first minute of injury time.

Former Derby defender Michael Johnson was pleased with the win, and so was Double Commonwealth champion and three-time Olympian Ross Davenport, who is a fan of the Rams.

Over the course of the 90 minutes at St. Andrew’s on Saturday afternoon, hosts Birmingham had 52% of the possession, took 22 shots of which three were on target, and earned nine corners, according to BBC Sport.

Visitors Derby had 48% of the possession, took 12 shots of which five were on target, and earned three corners, according to BBC Sport.
