Recent respective form guides

West Bromwich Albion's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. Baggies have conceded a disappointing 15 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 2 of their own chances.

Newcastle Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. The Magpies's have scored 10 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 11.
