Bristol City, Recent FormBristol City head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 2-1 away win against Swansea City in their last league encounter. Their share of possession in that meeting was 39%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Swansea City, who had 12 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Nigel Pearson will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 5 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.
Sam Bell will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Bristol City.
West Bromwich Albion, Recent FormThe West Bromwich Albion players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Huddersfield Town recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat. In that game they recorded 62 % of the possession, with 10 attempts on goal, 5 on target. Their opponents found the target on 4 of their 14 shots on goal.
Whilst manager Carlos Corberán will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 12 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Their form away from home has been of some concern, having recorded just 2 wins and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches on the road.
Goalscorer John Swift will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for West Bromwich Albion.
It was one to forget for Bristol City last time they met West Bromwich Albion in the league, falling to a 0-2 defeat.
With at least 1 goal in each of their last 7 away matches against Bristol City in the league, The Baggies have built a decent scoring record that they will be keen to extend. We've seen plenty of goals from West Brom when they've visited The Robins in the league, in their last 3 games they've scored a total of 7 goals, which is an average of 2.33 per game. Playing at home, Bristol City have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against West Brom.
In the league, West Brom have been unbeaten in the last 3 times they have visited Bristol City at Ashton Gate Stadium.
Bristol City manager Nigel Pearson has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Rob Atkinson (Cruciate ligament), Ayman Benarous (Cruciate ligament), Tommy Conway (Hamstring) and Ross McCrorie (Virus) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Daryl Dike (Achilles tendon) and Adam Reach (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Carlos Corberán will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
