There will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the West Bromwich Albion players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Swansea City.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 58%, while racking up 10 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Swansea City, who had 10 shots on goal with 4 on target.  

They have taken just a small number of points from their past 6 matches, and while they have only let in 3 goals, it has been their unpredictable form in front of goal that has been their issue, with 5 goals netted in those 6 matches.  When playing at home this season, they've notched up 7 clean sheets.  

It has been a solid run of home form of late, having gone undefeated in 5 of their last 6 matches at home and clocking up 4 wins along the way.

Blackburn Rovers had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 2-2 draw against Rotherham United.  They achieved 62% possession in that match and had 18 strikes at goal, with 9 hitting the target, up against Rotherham United's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.  

Manager Jon Dahl Tomasson will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 15 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 7 goals they managed at the other end.   They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 22 of their 26 games overall.  

With 4 defeats and just 1 victory in their last 6 league matches, they have had a poor run and will need to turn that around if they want to start climbing the table.  

Sammie Szmodics has scored 5 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against West Bromwich Albion.
