Tuesday night, West Brom hosts early season Championship strugglers QPR at The Hawthorn’s for their second home game in four days.
In their first encounter following the international break, the Baggies and Plymouth Argyle drew goallessly. Only two of the 14 attempts that Carlos Corberan’s team attempted found the net, leaving West Brom in ninth place. The next team to play is QPR, who lost to Huddersfield Town 2-1 the previous weekend. The Hoops were behind by two goals in less than 14 minutes, and even though Jake Clarke-Salter scored three minutes before halftime, they were unable to even the score.
As they now lie 22nd in the league standings, Gareth Ainsworth’s team is having serious difficulties. The men from West London are under increasing pressure from their management because they haven’t won since September 2. Though they are a club to be weary of, the humble team has won two league games this season, both away from home against Middlesbrough and Cardiff City.
In their past three home games, West Brom has not lost, winning 1-0 against Sheffield Wednesday and drawing goalless against Millwall and Plymouth Argyle. The lone league home loss they have had this season is a 2-1 loss to Huddersfield on September 2. If they triumph on Tuesday, they might rise to fifth place if the outcomes go their way.
Before West Brom and QPR play in the EFL Championship, both managers have some injury worries. Here is the most recent information on injuries and the team before the game:
