WBA v Burnley Match Preview
The Hawthorns has rarely been a happy hunting ground for the Clarets though on our last Premier League visit there a wonder strike from Ashley Barnes and a goal from Chris Wood were enough to give us a 2-1 win. Jay Rod featured for the Baggies that day and if fit may line up for Burnley tomorrow against his former club. My one trip to the Hawthorns saw us lose 2-0 Boing Boing and as I left the ground I came across some very disgruntled Clarets who had suffered similarly they said at the hands of West Midlands Police. This really is a game where Burnley need to pick up all 3 points. West Brom sit one place and one point above us in the table. They do have a goal threat but their defence has also been porous. Slaven Bilic a notable defender in his playing career will be keen to put that right. His management career has been as chequered as the shirt of his native Croatia but it has been more hit than miss.Danger player could be Grady Diangana an England Under 21 attacking midfielder West Brom signed from the Hammers. We need Nick Pope and our defence to be back to their best. Will Dunne get to partner Tarks? COYC!
