Overview
- Phil Neumann put Birmingham in front early in the second half with a looping header past Gavin Bazunu.
- Substitute Cameron Archer levelled in the 71st minute, converting Elias Jelert's cross as play continued following a collision between Tomoki Iwata and referee Matthew Donohue.
- Chris Davies was dismissed following his protests over the build-up to the equaliser and will be absent from the touchline against Watford on January 1.
- The result leaves Birmingham without a win in six matches, while Southampton have taken just one point from their last nine available.
- Birmingham's options remain stretched by Christoph Klarer's suspension and Demarai Gray's injury, as key moments included Paik Seung-ho hitting the bar and Jay Stansfield being denied by the post.
