Birmingham 0-0 West Brom: Struggling Baggies hold Chris Davies' side as Blues miss chance to go into Championship play-offs

Birmingham missed the chance to move into the Sky Bet Championship play-offs places after they were held to a 0-0 draw by West Brom in the West Midlands derby.

New West Brom boss Eric Ramsay remains winless but claimed a second successive draw and clean sheet to help his side move two points above the relegation places.

West Brom had lost 11 of their last 12 league games on the road and faced the daunting task of trying to get something from a Birmingham side who had the fourth best home record coming into the fixture, but managed to claim an important point in their fight for survival.

Birmingham felt hard done by that they were not awarded a penalty when Paik Seung-Ho saw his goalbound header blocked on the line by the arm of Callum Styles in an evenly contested first period.

The hosts banged on the door to get the all-important opener but were denied on the line for a second time when Charlie Taylor kept out Ibrahim Osman's effort, before August Priske's stoppage-time header was cancelled out for offside and Carlos Vicente hit the post.
