On Tuesday, West Brom will host Watford in the EFL Championship, aiming to extend their unbeaten streak as the season nears its end. The Baggies enter this match following a 2-0 victory over Preston North End last weekend, with Josh Maja and Daryl Dike each scoring a goal.
This win broke a sequence of three consecutive draws in the league, marking their 13th win of the Championship season, and maintaining an eight-game unbeaten run.
Thanks for the submission!
James Morrison’s team is currently in 20th place on the Championship table with 49 points from 43 matches, sitting five points above the relegation zone.
A win on Tuesday could virtually assure their place in the second tier of English football, despite a challenging season that saw them finish ninth last year.
In contrast, Watford holds the 13th spot but is struggling, having lost their last two Championship matches and three of the last four.
The London team has not secured a Championship win in five games and is poised to remain in the second division for the fifth straight year.
