Sunday lunchtime brings us a high noon clash between West Brom and Huddersfield Town in the Championship as the betting tips continue at The Hawthorns.
West Brom Prediction – Can West Brom maintain unbeaten start?
West Brom still remain unbeaten in the Championship so far this season under their new manager, Slaven Bilic, as The Baggies look to exploit Huddersfield’s poor start to this second tier campaign and in turn lift West Brom possibly into the top two of the division.
3 wins and 4 draws have helped West Brom into 6th place and overall, the west midlands club are unbeaten from their last 7 matches overall in the Championship, a sequence that includes victories against Nottingham Forest, Luton Town and Blackburn Rovers, as well as draws with Millwall, Reading, Derby County and Fulham.
The hosts also possess a solid set of results at The Hawthorns as The Baggies have ‘lost’ just 1 out of their last 10 matches on home turf which was actually a 1-0 win against Aston Villa but the hosts lost on penalties, so in reality it’s 10 without loss for the west midlands outfit.
In addition, West Brom have scored in each of these last 10 matches, scoring 2 goals or more in 6 of these 10 with the likes of midfielders Diangana (3 goals) and Phillips (2 goals) along with forward Zohore (2 goals) getting amongst the goals early this season.
Huddersfield Town Prediction – Can Huddersfield gain first win under Cowley?
Huddersfield may have their third manager in the space of a year, but the results have all been exactly the same as Danny Cowley’s first game in charge of The Terriers ended in defeat with a 2-0 loss at home to Yorkshire rivals, Sheffield Wednesday last weekend.
6 defeats from their opening 7 matches of this new Championship campaign already saw Huddersfield show the door to former manager, Jan Siewart, so Danny Cowley has taken a sizeable risk by leaving former club Lincoln City to take over the reigns at the John Smith’s Stadium.
With just 1 point earned from the possible 21 on offer so far this season, Huddersfield have made a disastrous start to the new campaign and they sit second from bottom in the Championship and they face a tough assignment in the midlands against West Brom on Sunday lunchtime.
The visitor’s results away from home have resulted in a 1-1 draw at QPR but also back-to-back defeats at Cardiff City and Luton Town, both of which were 2-1 losses on the road, so a visit to face a West Brom side that haven’t lost in their last 10 at The Hawthorns may well be beyond them here.
Key-Facts – West Brom v Huddersfield Town
- West Brom are unbeaten in their last 10 matches at home in the Championship
- Huddersfield have lost 6 of their first 7 matches of this new campaign
- Huddersfield are without an away league win in their last 17 matches
Betting Tips Verdict
West Brom have proven themselves hard to beat at The Hawthorns and should grab all three points against a poor Huddersfield outfit in this clash.
