West Bromwich Albion, Recent FormThe 2-0 away defeat to Hull City will not have sat easily with the West Bromwich Albion squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 70% possession and managed 21 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Hull City who had 8 attempts and 2 on target.
Carlos Corberán will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 8 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. With 5 clean sheets in their last 6 home games, they are proving tough to beat at The Hawthorns.
They have been performing well at The Hawthorns recently and are unbeaten in their last 8 home games.
Wigan Athletic, Recent FormA point gained from their 1-1 draw against Birmingham City in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for Wigan Athletic. They achieved 72% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Birmingham City's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 4 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 4 and seen valuable points lost. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games. With goals in 14 of their away games this season, it's easy to see why their travelling support will be optimistic of success on the road.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 11 games.
Will Keane will be hoping to create problems for West Bromwich Albion in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Wigan Athletic.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
West Brom have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 3 league meetings with The Latics.
In the league, West Brom have not won any of their last 3 meetings with Wigan.
West Brom manager Carlos Corberán has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Karlan Ahearne-Grant (Muscle), Kyle Bartley (Foot), Grady Diangana (Foot), Alex Palmer (Knee) and Matt Phillips (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With Martin Kelly (Knee) being out for the rest of the season and Jason Kerr (Cruciate ligament) also unavailable in the shorter term, Wigan manager Shaun Maloney will be pleased to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
