Birmingham will be determined to avoid a repeat of the last time they faced Aston Villa in the Midlands derby on Sunday.
St Andrews is sure to be rocking for the visit of Martin O'Neill's men, who seem to have the better of their local rivals at present.
Villa have won the last four derby clashes, including the 5-1 mauling of their fierce foes at Villa Park last time out. In all, the Villans have scored an impressive 11 goals in those four games and conceded just three.
However, the Blues will be expecting better this time around with manager Alex McLeish assembling a squad that looks more than capable of holding its own in the top flight.
Birmingham have made some astute signings over the summer and their secure if not spectacular start to the Premier League means confidence should be high in the Blues camp.
Meanwhile, Villa have recovered well following their surprising opening day home defeat to Wigan by beating Liverpool 3-1 at Anfield and Fulham 2-0 at Villa Park to take them up to eighth in the table.
Let's watch who will be the winner...
