QPR 0-2 Birmingham
Birmingham climbed to the top of the Championship after seeing off QPR, despite Nicklas Bendtner's red card.
The Blues took a first-half lead when Bruno N'Gotty - who had earlier gone close - headed past Paul Jones.
DJ Campbell had a goal ruled out for handball, while David Dunn and Neil Danns both saw shots deflected wide.
Campbell hit the post before Bendtner was dismissed for two quick bookings, but the Blues sealed the win when Cameron Jerome lobbed in at the death.
