West Bromwich Albion meets Bristol City in a Boxing Day Championship match. This clash in the 23rd round finds Bristol placed ninth in the standings and West Brom 16th. Read on for our prediction.
Five points separate the two sides, both with a lot to play for. Hosts West Brom are coming off their 10th defeat of the season, after falling 1-0 to Hull City. That left them on 28 points, positioned nine points above the drop zone.
A -4 goal difference doesn’t help either, but the Baggies can afford some optimism, having lost only once in their 10 home league matches so far. In the last seven home outings, they are unbeaten, winning four.
Bristol City pulled a shocker in their latest outing as they beat title contenders Middlesbrough. They claimed a 2-0 home win to end a three-match winless run.
A poor streak in recent matches has left the Robins two points below the top six. With three defeats in their last five away matches, the rise back there could prove a tough act.
The visitors have collected 15 of their 33 points in away matches and lost in both of their latest visits to West Brom. In fact, they have only one win in their last 10 away trips to West Brom.
