West Bromwich Albion News and Form – Leaders to maintain unbeaten home record?

Slaven Bilic’s West Bromwich Albion are in good form, winning four and drawing two since their one and only league loss to Leeds United at Elland Road. Before the international break, Jake Livermore’s goal was enough to give West Brom a hard-fought 1-0 win at Hull City.

Albion have the best away record in England’s second tier at present, but eight sides have picked up more home points so far. Bilic’s boys have been far from prolific at The Hawthorns, winning three and drawing four of seven. However, they are one of only two teams yet to lose at home in this season’s Championship.

 

 

West Brom will want to improve at home as the season progresses as they seek promotion back to the Premier League, starting with three points against Sheffield Wednesday this weekend. The home side go into this one as the 10/11 favourites.

Sheffield Wednesday News and Form – Can the Owls shock the table-toppers?

Sheffield Wednesday have been hard to beat since Garry Monk took over at Hillsborough, but the Owls head to the Midlands without a win in three. Wednesday were involved in a thriller with Swansea City before the international break, drawing 2-2 with the Welsh club.

Sheffield Wednesday lost their last away match, but the Yorkshire side have been relatively solid on their travels. Overall, the Owls have won three, drawn one and lost four of eight away fixtures.

This will undoubtedly be a tough test for Sheffield Wednesday. West Brom have only lost one game in the Championship this season, and the Midlands club are two points clear at the top. Nevertheless, can Monk’s troops cause an upset this Saturday?

West Bromwich Albion vs Sheffield Wednesday Predictions

West Bromwich Albion win: Bilic’s Baggies are certainly the team to beat in the Championship this term. Albion have been beaten just once in 16 league matches, scoring 29 goals along the way. The Baggies will be going for a tenth Championship win of the season on Saturday.

Sheffield Wednesday have an excellent squad, full of talented players. However, it doesn’t get much tougher than a trip to The Hawthorns. It could be a close, but I can see the home team nicking the points. The West Brom win is available at 10/11.

Matt Phillips has been in excellent form at the start of this season. The 28-year-old, who is widely regarded as one of the best players outside of the Premier League, has scored six league goals already. Take a punt on Phillips to net first in this clash at 13/2.
