West Brom vs Burnley Preview
West Brom are looking set to be a Championship club next season. The Baggies are bottom of the Premier League and ten points from safety. With just seven games remaining and three of those against Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham, West Brom’s time alongside Englands elite looks soon to be over.
It’s surprising that Alan Pardew has been allowed to remain at the club for so long and it may be that a lack of suitable replacement is the reason for his extended stay. Any change now may be too late for West Brom as they would have to perform a miracle u-turn to dig themselves out of the bottom three. The Baggies have lost their last eight consecutive games, including their FA Cup exit which saw them lose 2-1 at home to fellow strugglers Southampton. Confidence amongst players is at an all-time low and they haven’t shown any signs of improvement. A win on Saturday would provide a glimmer of hope, especially with hosting Swansea next week, but Pardew will need to pull something out of the bag if his side are to pick up their first league win since January.
Nacer Chadli, James Morrison, Daniel Sturridge and Gareth Barry all remain out for West Brom with Pardew likely to name the same starting eleven that lined up in their 2-1 defeat away to Bournemouth two weeks ago.
After a terrible 12 game winless run, Burnley have picked up two wins on the trot against Everton and West Ham. Sean Dyche’s side remain in 7th position as they have done for a long time due to their positive start to the season and still have the chance to keep the pressure on Arsenal who currently occupy 6th place in the table and who are five points ahead of the Clarets.
Surprisingly, Burnley have only managed to find the net 27 times in 30 games this season which is the fourth lowest in the league. However, they have also only conceded 26 goals which is the fourth best in the league. Burnley’s most recent win away to West Ham was their first victory on the road since November and Dyche will be looking to build on that with maximum points on Saturday.
Robbie Brady, Steven Defour and Jonathan Walters remain out injured for Burnley while Scott Arfield is also unlikely to feature due to injury.

West Brom vs Burnley Predictions
The league table would suggest victory for the visitors but it is rock-bottom West Brom who are the bookies favourites to claim all three points. Despite West Brom’s poor run of results, they have managed to score in their last six matches and given that Burnley have only managed to score more than once in their last six on the road, this could turn out to be a very close game. Both teams to score seems like it has value and with the game possibly going either way, we’re tipping the draw which will see the home side pick up a rare point which will have little effect on their league position.
