Bentley excited by derby chance

14 January 2011 08:00
Birmingham new-boy David Bentley is relishing the chance to make his debut in the second city derby against Aston Villa on Sunday. Right-winger Bentley this week completed his loan switch to St Andrew's from Tottenham until the end of the season and is desperate to kick-start his career after falling out of favour at White Hart Lane. An impressive debut for Blues against bitter cross-city rivals Villa would be the perfect way to start a new chapter of his career and Bentley knows the importance of the fixture. He said: "I hear it is quite a passionate affair and that there is great rivalry between the two clubs."
