West Bromwich Albion aim to make it two wins on the bounce in the EFL Championship when they host Blackburn at The Hawthorns on matchday 11. The two teams have seen their last four league meetings end with under 2.5 goals hence our prediction for a low-scoring affair.
West Bromwich Albion have posted a 5-2-3 record from their first ten Championship matches this season. As a result, they sit sixth with 17 points, despite being level on points with two teams higher up the table.
The West Midlands outfit had endured a turbulent period before their hard-fought 2-1 away win to Wrexham. That outcome ended a three-match winless run, including two successive 1-0 defeats to Wolves and Birmingham.
The Baggies return to their humble abode where they've lost one of their five matches. Notably, in the previous season against Blackburn, the team won 1-0 at the Hawthorns, suggesting a similar outcome.
Blackburn Rovers are two points adrift of their opponents in this impending encounter as they occupy ninth place in the league standings.
The Rovers are on cloud nine having avoided defeat in their last four matches. Three of those encounters resulted in victory.
In their recent match, they had no trouble seeing off Bristol City's threat away from home. Oladapo Afolayan scored the only goal in that match, helping his side win 1-0.
