Prediction

  • West Brom responded well after falling behind against promotion contenders Sheffield United on Sunday as Karlan Grant's equaliser earned the Baggies a point on the road. The managerless hosts are unbeaten in seven league games at The Hawthorns with back-to-back victories in their most recent two home outings.
  • Preston turned on the style in the final half-hour against Sheffield Wednesday last time out as goals from Sam Greenwood and Emil Riis sealed a 3-1 home win. Paul Heckingbottom's men have struggled away from home this season though and travel to the West Midlands with just one win on the road from 11 attempts.
