Salop have already welcomed Birmingham City to the Meadow - with Paul Hurst looking to get his men in top shape ahead of the new campaign.

They fell behind against the Premier League new boys as Stephy Mavididi found the net - before a Caleb Okoli own goal levelled things up after the break.

That lasted for a minute before Kasey McAteer made it 2-1 to the visitors and that is how it stayed.
