Recent respective form guides

West Bromwich Albion's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While The Baggies have scored 4, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

West Ham Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Hammers have hit 6 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

West Brom. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Barclays Premiership with a return of just 29 points from their 36 games thus far. West Ham Utd.'s 49 points from 36 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
