Alan Pardew’s men have still not won since August but would have fancied their chances of beating the Swans, who, at the time, were bottom of the table, while the Baggies went into the contest off the back of three draws.
And now they face an extremely daunting task trying to end that long wait for a win as they face Liverpool at Anfield on Wednesday night – and it may not be a surprise to see Pardew make a couple of changes ahead of the game.
