West Bromwich Albion, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-0 away defeat by Birmingham City will have left the West Bromwich Albion squad feeling a little deflated. They achieved 68% possession in that match and had 5 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Birmingham City's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Carlos Corberán will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 8 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. They are proving tough to beat at home with their recent run of 6 clean sheets.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 6 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 6 games.
Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormBlackburn Rovers will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 1-1 result against Watford last time out. In that game they recorded 39 % of the possession, with 7 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 6 of their 15 shots on goal.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 4 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. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away league games. 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.
They've drawn their last 3 games, but their search for a win in a league game extends even further with 4 consecutive games without a win.
On an individual basis, Bradley Dack will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Blackburn Rovers' last 6 league games.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for West Bromwich Albion, losing 2-1 to Blackburn Rovers.
Playing at home, West Brom have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Blackburn.
In this away league fixture, Blackburn has not won in the last 4 times they have played West Brom at The Hawthorns.
West Brom manager Carlos Corberán has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Kyle Bartley (Foot), Alex Palmer (Knee) and Matt Phillips (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Jon Dahl Tomasson has a number of injury concerns in his Blackburn squad to contend with: Daniel Ayala (Knock), Sam Barnes (Knee), Callum Brittain (Medial Collateral Ligament), Dominic Hyam (Ankle), Thomas Kaminski (Knee) and Clinton Mola (Ankle)
