The Coca-Cola Championship's top two sides, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Birmingham City, have fought out at a 1-1 draw at Molineux.

Birmingham opened the scoring early in the second half through substitute Cameron Jerome.

But a Sylvan Ebanks-Blake's equaliser for Wolves 16 minutes from full time ensured it was honours even in an enthralling clash between the high-flying Midlands rival.

The result ended Wolves' hopes of equalling a club-record eight successive victories, but maintained their six-point lead over Birmingham at the top of the table.

Both teams boast impressive leads over the chasing pack and remain favourites for the two automatic promotion places which would take them into the Premier League.
