West Brom v Huddersfield Betting Tips – Premier League 24th February 3.00pm

It is desperate times now for West Brom who are bottom of the table and seven points away from safety, so they have to come up with a win. Huddersfield are fourth from the bottom so are in trouble as well, being just a point above the drop zone. This is a tense match for both of them and the three points would be huge for whoever earns them.

West Brom News and Form

West Brom really need to kick their survival mode into high gear. Nothing has been happening for them at the moment and they have suffered three heavy defeats in a row now going into this one. They suffered a 3-2 loss in their last home game against fellow strugglers Southampton and that was a crushing blow for them. West Brom have conceded exactly three goals in each of their last three games in league now and their overall form at the Hawthorns now this season reads W2 D7 L4. They start the weekend bottom of the league a massive seven points away from safety and it is Huddersfield who they are trying to catch. West Brom are without a clean sheet in their last four league games home and away but both teams NOT to score at Coral is a quote of 4/6 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 9.19 p.m. on February 20th, 2018). This is going to be a tense affair and Huddersfield aren’t bringing a powerful attack to the party. West Brom are now 20 points worse off than they were at this stage last season and are in heaps of trouble.

Huddersfield News and Form

Huddersfield got themselves a very good win last time out on the league as they thumped Bournemouth and that was a win that the Terriers desperately needed too. It snapped an eight-match winless streak that they were on and a five-match losing sequence as well. That boost of three points has just about kept them above the relegation zone so they have to put a lot of work into the season still. They have lost their last three away games in the top flight without having managed a goal in any of them and they only have eight away goals this season. They have conceded at least two goals in five of their last six Premier League games now. Out on the road, there have been just the two wins that they have produced, having lost nine of their thirteen played. The half time draw at Coral is worth a look in this one though as the Terriers have been level at half time in seven road games. There has been no away clean sheet in their last ten games though and on average they have shipped at least two goals in away games. The three points in this one would be massive for them.

West Brom v Huddersfield Head to Head

West Brom have actually lost two of their last four at the Hawthorns against Huddersfield across all competitions (W1 D1). However, their meeting back in early November, which Huddersfield won 1-0 was the first time they had met in the league since the 2000/01 Division 1. They did contest a 2010 FA Cup tie which the Baggies won 2-0 away from home.
