Lloyd Dyer and Marvin Sordell both scored superb goals as Burton Albion came back to beat Birmingham City and register their first win of 2017-18.
Jacques Maghoma had put Blues ahead against his former side, stabbing home after Lukas Jutkiewicz's knock down.
Sordell's brilliant turn and 20-yard strike then deservedly made it 1-1 early in the second half.
Dyer's smart finish after Lucas Akins' backheel completed the turnaround to give the Brewers victory.
Nigel Clough's side had been rooted to the bottom of the early Championship table following defeats by Cardiff, Hull and Middlesbrough - but they were good value for their victory against Blues.
The Brewers had looked the more threatening in the early stages and Maghoma, who spent three seasons with Burton, put the visitors in front against the run of play.
But two fine second-half goals - a solo effort from Sordell and an eye-catching team goal finished by Dyer - ensured Albion would continue their 100% record in competitive fixtures against Birmingham.
Blues' biggest threat came from big front men Jutkiewicz and Clayton Donaldson, who came close to altering the course of the match when his overhead kick struck the foot of the post with the score 1-1.
Harry Redknapp's Birmingham have now lost two and won just one of their opening four league fixtures.
