Do we have a chance of winning at West Brom?
Their recent form is awful, 0 wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats, 1 goal for, 10 against, in the last 6 games. In the four games since Steve Bruce took over they’ve lost three and drawn one.
Unfortunately we are almost as bad, with 2 wins and 4 defeats, 4 goals for, 11 against. We haven’t won away since last November, against Barnsley.
Our away form is poor, our system and formation has been sussed. The head-coach will not change the way he wants us to play. We do not have the players to play his way. Luckily we are almost clear of relegation with Derby and Reading having been deducted points.
Very best outcome a draw, worst outcome another heavy defeat.
Andy Carroll will be chomping at the bit for the Baggies, he loves scoring against Swansea.

Great result tonight!
Iolo is a very happy man after that win. It could have gone the other way to be honest, as the Baggies hit the post twice, but Ntcham turned the game when he came on.

Pretty boring first half, last 20 mins our superior fitness told. Ntcham coming on changed the game and he set up both goals exposing gaps on their right side.
Certainly makes up for the last away game and eases the pressure on Martin.
Only their second home defeat of the season and our first win there in 9 years
