West Brom Form

Many were surprised by the decision to sack Slaven Bilic in the aftermath of their 1-1 draw against Man City on Tuesday night.

Leading up to that result, the Baggies had beaten Sheffield United 1-0 at the Hawthorns. That result was followed up by a 5-1 defeat to Crystal Palace, although it should be noted the score was 1-1 before Matheus Pereira’s red card.

West Brom then lost 2-1 late on at Newcastle before picking up a valiant point against Pep Guardiola’s side away from home last time out.

Aston Villa Form

Aston Villa haven’t been winning games as freely as they were at the start of the season, winning just one of their last four.

The run started with back-to-back defeats against Brighton and West Ham in the Premier League. This was then followed up by a late 1-0 win over Wolves thanks to a stoppage time penalty.

Villa were then held to a 0-0 draw by Burnley last time out in a game where they squandered a number of promising openings.

Team News

West Brom will be without midfielder Matheus Periera due to suspension. Kyle Bartley, Conor Townsend, Sam Field and Hal Robson-Kanu are injured.

Aston Villa will hope to call upon Ezri Konsa and Ross Barkley back from injury. Wesley and Trezeguet are both unavailable.
