Preston haven’t beaten West Brom in the last 15 years, a run of 10 games and it is hard to see how they will leave the Hawthorns with all 3 points on Wednesday. West Brom have faltered in recent weeks and find themselves adrift of the automatic promotion places at this stage, mainly caused by their inability to take their chances away from home. At the Hawthorns it is a different story. No team in the Championship has taken more points per game at home this season than the Baggies and although Preston have won 3 of their last 5 on the road, they have kept just 2 clean sheets in their 12 away games so far.
If West Brom get in front, they could be hard to catch, as they have conceded just 6 times at home this season and 58% of their games here have seen them keep a clean sheet.
