Sunderland, Recent FormSunderland manager Tony Mowbray will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Millwall. In that game they had 60% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Millwall who had 7 attempts and 4 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
It's been mixed fortunes for Sunderland at Stadium of Light recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Jack Clarke will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 10 goals in Sunderland's 19 league games this season.
West Bromwich Albion, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-1 home defeat by Leicester City will have left the West Bromwich Albion squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with a 40% share of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Leicester City, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Carlos Corberán will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 away games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
John Swift will be hoping to create problems for Sunderland in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for West Bromwich Albion.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for West Bromwich Albion, losing 1-2 to Sunderland.
In their previous 4 encounters with The Baggies, Sunderland have shipped at least one goal in those matches.
In the league, Sunderland has not won any of the last 4 times they have welcomed West Brom to Stadium of Light.
