Free-kick for Wolves, for a foul by Jonathan Grounds on James Henry. A chance for Bakary Sako to whip one into the box. Before that, Brek Shea is on for Koby Arthur, who has been impressive for the visitors today.

"That was a great header from Grounds and a good delivery from David Cotterill. The game has really started to open up now."

Brilliant goalkeeping at the other end from Wolves keeper Carl Ikeme. Jonathan Grounds - you can't keep him out of the action - climbs highest at a corner and Ikeme dives to his right to push his header away from danger. Clayton Donaldson has another shot saved soon after. Still we wait for that elusive first goal in the derby.

Excellent work from Wolves full-back Matt Doherty, who runs Jonathan Grounds ragged down the right touchline and puts in a teasing cross which is expertly gathered by goalkeeper Darren Randolph.

Wolves have been the better side since half-time at a sunny Molineux. Should they have had a penalty? Debatable. No doubt it struck the hand of Jonathan Grounds, but it would have been a harsh one given his proximity to James Henry's delivery.

OptaJoe:, external 4 - Bakary Sako has scored in his last four appearances for @OfficialWolves. Run.

Could he be the game-changer?

Appeals for a Wolves penalty turned down. James Henry's cross hits the arm of Jonathan Grounds from close range and his second cross is palmed clear by Darren Randolph. Two changes for Wolves - Bakary Sako and Dave Edwards are on for Michael Jacobs and Liam McAlinden.

"Birmingham City have set themselves up very well. The longer the game goes on, they will create things on the break as well.

"Wolves have upped the tempo since the break but the touches and subtle stuff that they try and do are not going well."

The home crowd have lifted the noise levels inside Molineux and Wolves have responded with a little more urgency in their play. Kevin McDonald sends a shot well over, and as Blues break, a combination of Ethan Ebanks-Landell and Danny Batth concede a corner which is cleared to safety.

"Blues have to be the happier of the two sides on their first-half showing.

"Wolves fans are surely just waiting for the introduction of top scorer Bakary Sako, who was left on the bench as he is not 100% fit.

"Interesting choice of half-time soup in the Molineux press room, by the way.

"Chicken? For a derby game? I don't think so!!!"

Muted penalty appeals by Birmingham are waved away as Wolves centre-back Ethan Ebanks-Landell tackles Andrew Shinnie inside the box.

No changes for either side at the break. Blues attacking the newly-redeveloped Stan Cullis Stand in this second half.

Wolves' injured striker Nouha Dicko speaking to Sky Sports at half-time:

"I think we are disappointed not to be in front. It's an important game for us.

"The manager will tell us to try to keep our shape, as in the first half we have rushed, but he will say to keep playing our game and the goal will come."

On his injury: "It's a minor one - I hope to be back for Tuesday (against Ipswich) but it will be tight."

Lots for Wolves head coach Kenny Jackett to ponder at half-time. Without the injured Nouha Dicko, the promotion chasers have looked a little toothless in attack. Leon Clarke and Liam McAlinden haven't had much service and I doubt it will be long before we see top scorer Bakary Sako introduced from the bench.

Job done so far for Birmingham City. Coming into this one, Blues were big underdogs, but new manager Gary Rowett has had the desired effect. They were 3-0 behind and down to 10 men at this stage last weekend against Bournemouth, so to be level at Molineux at the break is a real step forward.

The half-time whistle blows at Molineux and it's still goalless.
