WEST BROM v MANCHESTER UNITED
Sunday 17th December 2017 – Kickoff: 1415hrs
Football – England – Premier League Betting Tips
West Brom have home advantage at The Hawthorns on Sunday afternoon but they face a Manchester United side who have won five of their last six, and the hosts may have trouble keeping up with their visitors in the attacking department.
West Brom are another side who have recently changed managers as previous boss, Tony Pulis, was shown the door after some poor results and a lack of attacking quality, but new boss, Alan Pardew, recently bemoaned his side’s lack of firepower as The Baggies have failed to score in their last three matches, which has dropped them into the relegation zone.
West Brom have drawn four of their last five, but are without a win in the top flight from their last 15 overall, and indeed have registered just two wins from their last 26 matches in the Premier League. A home record of 1-5-2 8/12 tells you all you need to know about the home side’s current plight.
Manchester United make their way to the west midlands on the back of an aforementioned strong run of five wins from their last six which would have normally seen United making a strong case for a title bid, but they’re now a massive 14 points adrift of league leaders Manchester City following their neighbours’ 4-1 thumping of Tottenham yesterday.
United have recently recorded wins over Newcastle United, Brighton, Watford, Arsenal and Bournemouth but defeat to Manchester City has seemingly ended their title hopes. Nevertheless, United will still keep plugging away, if only to secure a top four finish.
United hold an away record of 4-2-2 15/8 and this, along with their superior quality, should be enough to grab all three points here.
