Birmingham - Christian Benteke's penalty in time added on has ended a run of seven successive defeats for Aston Villa as they emerged 2-1 winners over West Brom in their Premier League clash on Tuesday.
Benteke -- who also scored the winner from the penalty spot in the corresponding fixture last term though that was a seven goal thriller -- restored the hosts one goal advantage after Saido Berahino had levelled for the visitors following Gabriel Agbonlahor's early strike.
Villa's win -- their first in 13 league matches -- is their first since beating bottom side Leicester three months ago and sees them climb out of the bottom three with a three point advantage over QPR and Burnley.
