Prediction

West Brom defeated West Ham 3-2 earlier this season at the Hawthorns, but the last West Ham vs West Brom fixture in 2005 saw the Hammers win 1-0.

West Ham eliminated almost any potential talks of a form slump after winning their last two matches. West Brom, however, are firm favourites for relegation, after picking up only a single point in their last six matches.

West Ham's home advantage will further dent West Brom's chances, with the Baggies only picking up one win on the road all season so far. The absence of Carlton Cole and James Collison, however, will be sorely felt by the Hammers and will put a massive dent in their attacking capabilities.

However, West Ham should still have the strength needed to see of a challenge by the bottom-of-the-table West Brom side and will enter the match as relatively firm favourites.

Having said this, the Hammers will have to work hard to find someone else to put the ball in the back of the net for them, with their leading goalscorer in Carlton Cole absent for this fixture.
