West Brom – Blackburn

West Brom host Blackburn in what promises to be a decisive clash in the lower half of the table. The home side sit fourth with 14 points from seven games, having scored ten and conceded seven, while the visitors linger in 15th place on eight points, their ten‑goal tally matched by ten conceded. With West Brom boasting four wins and only one loss compared with Blackburn’s two victories and three defeats, the difference in form is stark. The encounter offers Blackburn a chance to close the gap on the safety line, but a slip‑up would see them slide further away from the mid‑table, whereas a win could propel West Brom back into the promotion conversation.
