West Bromwich Albion News and Form – Baggies to bounce back with a win?

West Bromwich Albion were shocked by bottom club Barnsley last Tuesday. The Tykes, who have yet to win away from home this season, raced into a two-goal lead at The Hawthorns after just 24 minutes. However, Slaven Bilic’s side battled back to get a point thanks to an own goal and a late Matheus Pereira strike.

On the whole, West Brom have been very solid on their own patch this season. The Baggies have won three and drawn three of six Championship games at The Hawthorns. Meanwhile, Albion have netted 15 times at home, with 13 of those coming in their last four.

Charlton Athletic News and Form – Can the Addicks avoid a third defeat in four away games?

Charlton Athletic have had a topsy-turvy season so far. The Addicks were unbeaten in their opening six (four wins, two draws), but they have lost four of their last seven in the Championship. As a result, the London outfit have slipped down to tenth, five points adrift of West Brom.

On Wednesday, Lee Bowyer’s side fell to a 2-1 defeat to Bristol City. Despite Macauley Bonne’s 65th-minute goal giving them a 1-0 lead at Ashton Gate, an injury-time Josh Brownhill effort gave the points to the Robins.

Since winning 2-0 at Reading, Charlton have taken just one point from a possible nine away from home. Can they claim a shock victory at The Hawthorns on Saturday?

West Bromwich Albion vs Charlton Athletic Predictions

West Bromwich Albion win: The Baggies were uncharacteristically poor in the first half against Barnsley on Tuesday. However, Bilic’s troops showed plenty of fighting spirit to come back and preserve their unbeaten home record in the Championship.

West Brom will no doubt be in the race for promotion this season, and I fancy them to secure a comfortable home victory over Charlton on Saturday. Put some money on Albion to win -1 at 11/10.

Only Preston North End, who have the best home record, have netted more home goals (19) than West Brom (15) up until now. The Hawthorns faithful have been treated to a hatful of goals this term, so have a punt on the hosts to score 4+ at the weekend at 4/1.
