- West Bromwich are on a 5-match winning streak.
Baggies’ momentum may just carry them over the line
West Bromwich come into this match with their tails up, winning 8, drawing 1 and losing just 1 of their last 10 matches in all competitions.
Their form reads well with 3 straight away wins over Peterborough United, Rotherham United and Norwich City and Jimmy-Jay Morgan is suddenly on fire for the Baggies.
He has 1 assist in 1 Championship 2026/2027 game and 6 of his team's 16 goals across their 5-match winning run.
In Aune Selland Heggeboe, James Morrison's men now have a sharp edge up top with the young Norwegian having scored 1 goal in his only Championship 2026/2027 appearance so far.
The Clarets have been wobbling of late, picking up just 1 win, 3 draws and 6 defeats from their last 10 in all competitions.
They have drawn home games against Espanyol and Notts County and lost at home to Torino in this current 5-match winless run.
Nicky Hayen's side will try to control the tempo and build up in a more structured 4-2-3-1 than they usually favour, but the game is a banana skin for the Clarets.
West Brom have not beaten Burnley in the last meeting at The Hawthorns so, despite the visitors being a big price at 37/25, we feel West Brom have the edge at 44/25 with the draw 23/10.
Clarets will have to carve out their chances
Burnley's best route to success here looks to be through patient possession and combination play, while West Bromwich will look to sting them on the break with their compact, back-to-basics system.
So a tight tactical scrap seems likely, but West Brom's momentum could just see them over the line.
Under 2.5 goals at 7/10 is the best fit for this fixture though, with both teams to score in the No column at 91/100.
Both sides are likely to be cautious and a cagey 1-1 draw was the score-line the last time these two met in Championship 2024/2025.
