Despite lingering down in the bottom half, things are still looking up for West Bromwich Albion under Tony Pulis.
Prior to their defeat at the hands of Liverpool, West Bromwich Albion had gone four games unbeaten in the league, and under Tony Pulis they seem to be relatively comfortable in terms of their position.
Now, with some tricky fixtures looming, they will have to dig deep in order to prove that they belong.
Manchester City – Home
Some would say this is a great time to play Manchester City, but in reality they will probably be thrilled at the prospect of returning to form in this clash. West Brom are no pushovers, especially at home, however City just will not stop when it comes to pouring forward in attack.
That being said confidence among Guardiola’s men is quite low, and if the Baggies play their cards right and frustrate the former champions from the first whistle then they have a chance of pinching a point.
Prediction: West Brom 1-1 Manchester City
Leicester City – Away
The Foxes are a mixed bag in the Premier League this season as it appears they have been prioritising their European adventure. Regardless, they have more than enough quality in their ranks to give the majority of teams in the division a good game.
When they get the ball down and really start playing they are one of the funnest teams in the country to watch, and in front of a lively King Power Stadium they will more than likely find a way to overcome Pulis’s men.
Prediction: Leicester 2-1 West Brom
Burnley – Home
On paper it seems like a must win, but Burnley have proved that they should not be taken lightly following some huge victories in the early stages of the campaign. They will play every away game with no fear, and West Brom should be extremely wary of that.
It will be a tense affair as the Baggies will be cautious of how the visitors set themselves up at The Hawthorns, however their experience should see them through with a much needed return to winning ways.
Prediction: West Brom 2-1 Burnley
