After drawing with Sheff Utd in their last match in the league, West Brom are now undefeated in 11 games in a row.

Coventry preview: Hoping to build on last weekend's win

After five games without a win, Coventry have ended this bad run with a victory over Millwall last weekend. Overall, Coventry City find themselves in the 14th place in the standings and thanks to three points from that previous match, they have now created a bit of a separation and are four points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone.

Meanwhile, Haji Wright, Raphael Borges Rodrigues, and the team's first-choice goalkeeper Ben Wilson are currently sidelined with injuries.

Predicted lineup: Collins (GK), Van Ewijk, Thomas, Binks, Bidwell, Eccles, Sheaf, Sakamoto, Rudoni, Mason-Clark & Bassette

Player to watch: Josh Maja

With 10 goals in the Championship this season, Maja is only behind Borja Sainz in the list of top scorers in the league. So, the former Sunderland player is having a good season so far and WBA will count on him to continue his fine form to help them in their push for promotion.
