West Bromwich Albion v Burnley Odds & Match Preview
Kick-off: 8pm UK Time, Thursday 7th November 2024
With just a single win from their last five Championship outings, Burnley are struggling to keep up with the top three in the division and manager Scott Parker will be desperate to stop the slide.
Sticky patch
Following their relegation from the Premier League at the end of last season, many were of the opinion that Burnley would be the standout side in this season’s Championship campaign. Nevertheless, after a solid start to the campaign, Scott Parker’s men have hit a sticky patch with just a single win in their last five and they now sit in fourth position in the league table with six points separating them from pace-setting Sunderland after thirteen rounds of fixtures.
Tumbled
The Clarets’ next league outing will be against West Bromwich Albion on Thursday evening, the Baggies currently sitting two points and two places below the Clarets. The West Midlands outfit have gone seven league games without a win and in recent weeks they have tumbled from the top of the division down to sixth place, although they still enjoy a two point cushion over Millwall, Blackburn Rovers and Bristol City.
Fortress
The Hawthorns have been something of a fortress for the Baggies since they dropped down from the top-flight in 2021, however they have been far from impressive at this venue of late with wins in just two of their six Championship games there this term and just two goals scored during this time. Clearly it’s only a matter of time before West Brom return to winning ways and a night match might be just the tonic they need.
Fire a blank
Burnley have been struggling away from Turf Moor this season and there’s every chance that Scott Parker’s men will fire another blank on their travels on Thursday evening. As such, we’ll be siding with the home side to claim all three points in what promises to be a low-scoring and somewhat cagey affair.
