You have to go back to September 21 for their last victory.<\/p>\n<p>Most alarmingly, West Brom have scored just two goals at the Hawthorns all season. They are on their worst run of form since suffering relegation from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/premier-league-barclays-era-deep-dive\/\">Premier League<\/a> in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>However, it&#8217;s not all doom and gloom in B71. Despite the worrying lack of goals and wins, Corberan&#8217;s side can move back up to fourth this evening.<\/p>\n<p>A victory will see them leapfrog tonight&#8217;s visitors in the table but that is easier said than done. The Baggies looked on course for all three points at Luton last time out thanks to Josh Maja&#8217;s 8th goal of the season.<\/p>\n<p>The Hatters were able to hit back via Tahith Chong which ensured a share of the spoils at Kenilworth Road. Nonetheless, securing all three points will be pivotal against Burnley if Corberan is to ease the pressure on himself.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">It&#39;s matchday, Baggies! \ud83d\udc4a<\/p>\n<p>\ud835\udde8\ud835\udde3 \ud835\udde7\ud835\udddb\ud835\uddd8 \ud835\uddd4\ud835\udddf\ud835\uddd5\ud835\udddc\ud835\udde2\ud835\udde1. \ud83e\udef6 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/SpVrPTICdT\">pic.twitter.com\/SpVrPTICdT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; West Bromwich Albion (@WBA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WBA\/status\/1854456508618293606?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 7, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Burnley<\/h3>\n<p>Similar to their hosts, Burnley are in the midst of a small purple patch of late. The Clarets haven&#8217;t tasted victory in their last three outings and have scored just once in that run.<\/p>\n<p>That goal came via Zian Flemming in a 1-1 draw against Hull on October 23. Their last two fixtures saw Scott Parker&#8217;s side held 0-0 by QPR before slipping to a 1-0 defeat to Millwall on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Parker won&#8217;t be <em>too<\/em> concerned by his side&#8217;s small winless streak. After all, the Lancashire club has invested their trust in a manager who has secured top-flight promotion in recent years with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/bournemouth-2024-25-fixtures-for-premier-league-fa-cup-league-cup\/\">Bournemouth<\/a> and Fulham.<\/p>\n<p>A win on Thursday will go along way in reminding fans of Parker&#8217;s credentials at this level. Furthermore, the Clarets do have recent history on their side.<\/p>\n<p>In the last five meetings against West Brom, Parker&#8217;s side has won twice and drawn the remainder. You have to go back to 2017 for the last time that the Clarets suffered a defeat.<\/p>\n<p>Scott Twine was the hero last time out. The midfielder scored a last-gasp free-kick to give Burnley a 2-1 win in January 2023.<\/p>\n<h2>West Brom Vs Burnley Team News<\/h2>\n<p>The main area of concern for <strong>West Brom<\/strong> is in the centre of defence. First choice duo Kyle Bartley and Semi Ajayi are both missing via injury. So to is Paddy McNair.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, Everton loanee Mason Holgate and Norwegian international <span class=\"mw-page-title-main\">Torbj\u00f8rn Heggem are set to fill the void. Darnell Furlong will occupy right-back with Callum Styles set for his second appearance of the season on the left.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>England U21 international Tom Fellows and Josh Maja are the main source of goals. Between them, they have eight goals and six assists this season.<\/p>\n<p>For <strong>Burnley<\/strong>, Lyle Foster is likely to miss out as he recovers from a knee problem. The same can be said for midfielder Aaron Ramsey who is also nearing a return after injury.<\/p>\n<p>The likes of Nathan Redmond\u00a0(knee),\u00a0Manuel Benson\u00a0(calf) and\u00a0Mike Tresor (leg) are also set to be absent. This leaves Scott Parker limited for attacking options.<\/p>\n<p>That duty will therefore fall to local lad Jay Rodriguez. The one-cap England forward actually played for West Brom between 2017-2019.<\/p>\n<h2>West Brom Vs Burnley Predicted Lineups<\/h2>\n<p><strong>West Brom (4-2-3-1):<\/strong> Palmer; Furlong, Holgate, Heggem, Styles; Molumby, Mowatt; Fellows, Swift, Grant; Maja<\/p>\n<p><strong>Burnley (4-2-3-1):<\/strong> Trafford; Roberts, Egan-Riley, Esteve, Humphreys; Brownhill, Cullen; Koleosho, Sarmiento, Anthony; Rodriguez<\/p>\n<h2>West Brom Vs Burnley Prediction<\/h2>\n<p>The lack of goals in recent outings for both sides is likely to continue this evening in what we are predicting to be a cagey, low-scoring affair.<\/p>\n<p>West Brom will be happy just to see the back of the net bulge whereas Burnley will value a decent point on the road against a promotion rival.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it is wise to expect a Hawthorns stalemate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prediction:<\/strong> West Brom 1-1 Burnley<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ahead of Thursday&#8217;s solitary EFL Championship clash, we have the West Brom vs Burnley preview, prediction, latest team news and predicted lineups.\u00a0 West Brom Vs Burnley Preview West Brom Promotion-chasing West Brom&#8217;s poor home form will be put to the test once again as they get set to take on Burnley this evening.
