West Brom to win it
Although West Brom have just three wins in their last seven games, those wins came at home; Steve Bruce's men have three wins in their last four home games, they lost just once in their last five home games. In fact, West Brom have been one of the best home teams in the Championship this season; they've suffered just three losses in 21 home games, with 11 wins and three draws. To be fair, Coventry have had a fairly decent run of form recently; as they have two wins in their last three games. However, it's important to note that Coventry lost all of their last three encounters with West Brom, and they are without a win in their last five meetings. Considering West Brom's record at home, we believe they'll take all the points today.
Expect a few goals
First of all, we would like to point out that both teams have conceded a lot of goals recently; West Brom kept just one clean sheet in their last six games, while Coventry conceded in all of their last 12 games. As a result, both teams' recent games have mostly been on the high-scoring side; as all of West Brom's last three, and four of Coventry's last five games went above the 2.5 goal margin. With this in mind, we are making the prediction that these teams will score at least three goals between them.

West Brom vs Coventry: Let's look at the predicted lineups
The fact that West Brom vs Coventry is a dead rubber at this stage of the season is criminal really. Both sides have flirted with the top of the table at some point but, unfortunately, both have endured extended poor spells to drop away. Now, all that is at stake is who finishes higher in midtable.
West Brom Predicted Lineup
West Brom are coming off a disappointing 4:0 loss at the hands of Nottingham Forest; that loss put a dent in their promotion hopes, as they are now six points from the promotion playoff places, with just three games left. West Brom have just two wins in their last six games; they'll hope to improve their poor form with a win here.
Predicted lineup – Burton, O'Shea, Bartley, Clarke, Gardner-Hickman, Reach, Livermore, Mowatt, Townsend, Carroll, Grant
Coventry Predicted Lineup
Coventry have had some mixed results in recent weeks; they have two wins, two draws and two losses in their last six games. There are three games left to play, and Coventry are four points from the lowest available promotion playoff spot; they'll need all the wins they can get, starting with this one.
Predicted lineup – Moore, Rose, Hyam, Bidwell, Kane, Allen, Sheaf, Hamer, Maatsen, O'Hare, Gyökeres.
