What channel is Birmingham v Derby Championship match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Birmingham v Derby in the Championship, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.

Birmingham are aiming for a return to winning ways as they face Derby in the first Championship match on Boxing Day.
The Blues have lost three of their last four matches, meaning they sit 14th in the table going into the Christmas fixture rush.
Alarm bells may be starting to ring following a 3-0 defeat to Sheffield United at the weekend, though Birmingham played 72 minutes down to 10 men following Tommy Doyle's red card.
Derby were unable to break the deadlock in a low-quality 1-1 draw with Portsmouth at Pride Park last time out.
The Rams are still missing top scorer Carlton Morris up front but could launch themselves as high as seventh with a victory here in a typically congested mid-table.
