A point separates West Brom from Leeds United at the top of the Championship at the time of writing. Leeds face a tough away trip to QPR on Saturday, while the Baggies will have to wait until Monday night to face off against Stoke. West Brom have beaten Stoke in 4/5 previous meetings at home, can they continue that run?

West Brom vs Stoke Betting Tips and Predictions: West Brom

West Brom have taken a wobble of late, they’ve won just one of their last five fixtures. Their home form hasn’t been the best either, they’ve taken just two points from a possible nine in their last three matches at the Hawthorns.

It must be said though that the Baggies have lost just one of their last 18 fixtures both home and away, while at home, they’ve lost just two of their last 15. The market has reacted to their wobble though, West Brom to Win opened at 1.72, it’s now at 1.85 and the Draw price has dropped from 3.65 to 3.40. Obviously they’re still massive favourites but the market isn’t as confident as it was.

West Brom vs Stoke Betting Tips and Predictions: Stoke

Stoke have certainly improved since Michael O’Neill took charge, but only in their home matches. Away from home they’ve won just one of their last five and only three in their last 10 on their travels.

They’ll take some confidence from their last away match when they thrashed Huddersfield 2-5, however last weekend they couldn’t capitalise on it and ended up drawing 0-0 with Millwall. It’s hard though to see Stoke getting anything here, besides that performance against Huddersfield they’re not scoring many on the road, over their last 10 away Championship matches they failed to score in five. Both Teams to Score: No at 2.0 might be worth considering.
