West Bromwich Albion, Recent FormWest Bromwich Albion will be feeling reasonably confident about this match, having secured a 2-0 away win against Reading in their last league encounter. They achieved 42% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Reading's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 8, and leading to valuable points being dropped. With just 2 clean sheets in the last 6 matches at home, (TBC) will be worried about the defensive frailties within his team of late.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Bristol City, Recent FormThe 2-1 home defeat to Millwall will not have sat easily with the Bristol City squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 56% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Millwall who had 16 attempts and 7 on target.
Nigel Pearson will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 5 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 10 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 5 of their last 6 away league games. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
They will be looking to try and improve on a largely bad set of recent results that have seen them defeated in 4 of their last 6 league matches, with just a single victory recorded. It's fair to say they'll need a serious change of form if they want to start moving up the table.
Away from home in the league, Nahki Wells has given the Bristol City travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 3 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
West Brom will be confident of finding the net in this one against The Robins, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 12 encounters between the two sides. We have seen plenty of goals from The Baggies when they play at home against Bristol City. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 11 goals, which is an average of 3.67 goals per game.
Bristol City will be hoping to get at least a point from this game having lost the last 5 times they've visited West Brom in the league and not won this away fixture at The Hawthorns for 7 games in a row.
With only Semi Ajayi (Ankle) and Daryl Dike (Thigh) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, (TBC) will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
With only Matty James (Groin) and Kal Naismith (Calf) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Nigel Pearson will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
