West Brom – Birmingham

West Brom, sitting fourth with 14 points after four wins, two draws and a single loss, will host Birmingham, who sit ninth on 10 points from two victories, four draws and one defeat. The home side’s modest +3 goal difference (10‑7) gives them a slight edge over the visitors, who sit just +1 (10‑9) despite playing one fewer game. Both teams have been tightly matched in recent encounters, with each side having secured points against the other in the last few meetings. A win for West Brom could solidify their push for the top three, while Birmingham will be looking to close the gap and climb back into the playoff places.
