Our prediction for this Championship match:
Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion face each other at Bet365 Stadium in the Championship round 41. The Potters have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team losing to Norwich City, beating Hull City, while sharing the spoils with Huddersfield Town on Monday. Stoke City are eager to escape the danger zone and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Baggies. All Lynden Gooch, Ben Pearson, and Junior Tchamadeu are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Baggies, on the other hand, are with one foot in the playoffs, but boss Carlos Corberan must warn his men against complacency. As both West Bromwich Albion and Stoke City should be happy with one point from Saturday’s clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. The likes of Jayson Molumby, Daryl Dike, and Josh Maja are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.
