Bournemouth vs West Brom Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Steve Ashfield | in Championship Predictions
West Bromwich Albion are back to the Championship after a season in the Premier League and start off with an away game at Vitality Stadium against Bournemouth. Last season, the hosts’ quest for promotion to the top flight was ended at the playoffs semis by Brentford. They’ll be eyeing a good start to the league, coming from a 5-0 win over MK Dons in the League Cup. David Brooks was on target with a brace, then Dominic Solanke, Phillip Billing and Christian Saydee added the rest. They didn’t seem to have much trouble defensively but that area remains a concern, with that being only the second clean sheet in 10 matches. In attack, they don’t seem to have a lot of problems, having scored in each of the last six. Each of their last five matches has produced over 2.5 goals, with Bournemouth conceding two or more goals in four. This new season, they start with Scott Parker, who was relegated with Fulham last season.
West Bromwich Albion are also under a new manager, Valerien Ismael and will be hoping to get back to the Premier League at the first time of asking. The manager has however started on a wrong footing, after an open tiff with Matheus Pereira, one of the team’s best players last season. The Brazilian forward has attracted interest from Premier League teams and is keen on leaving. He will definitely not be in this game. The Baggies have won three and drawn one in their four preseason matches and hope to carry the same to the league. They wrapped it up with a 4-0 win over Birmingham, their fourth straight clean sheet, and they’ve failed to score in just one of the four matches – a 0-0 draw with Watford. Twice in the last four matches, they’ve scored two or more goals and will want to take advantage of Bournemouth’s porous back line.

Our Bournemouth vs West Brom Prediction
Bournemouth’s main worry going to this game will be in the defence. They will have to up their game, seeing that West Brom are doing well in attack, and defence too. West Brom haven’t had their top scorer last season in their preseason friendly matches but have done well. They should be able to cope here too, especially as they face a side not so good defensively. Back West Brom to win.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
