Prediction: 3-1
Stoke City
The Hawthorns will be a setting for a battle between the West Bromwich Albion, just promoted from League One and Stoke City, who have just been relegated from the Premier League. Neither team can be particularly happy with how they are playing with Stoke in 17th place and five points and West Brom in 11th place and with seven points. Both teams started this season with a defeat and have been inconsistent these five games. The Baggies have managed two wins while the Potters managed to win only once. West Brom lost to Middlesbrough in the last game, while Stoke managed to bag their first win of the season, beating Hull City 2:0. Only Leeds have scored more goals than West Brom, who scored 13 goals in four matches, and a whopping seven against QPR. They will look to score again against Stoke after not scoring against Boro.
