West Brom vs Preston: Top Free Betting Tips

West Brom are in their best form since the start of the season and we expect an incredible match. Here are our predictions.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Based on Preston's season to date, we should expect a match with a big scoreline but on the contrary, we do not think there will be more than 1-2 goals in this game. There is a lot of history between these two sides and the games are always extremely close and difficult. All five most recent h2h games ended with less than 2.5 goals too.

Team Total Corners: West Brom Over 6.5 Corners

It is true that this line is extremely high but based on the performances of West Brom this season, as well as their current incredible form, we expect it to be an easy win. West Brom are the team in the Championship that takes the most corners in home matches. They have taken an average of 8.75 corners per match at home. Yes, Preston have not allowed this many overall per game – only 5.45, but this should be a close game with a lot of corners.

Correct Score Prediction: 2:0 to West Brom

We expect an under in this match like every single game between these two teams in recent years. Preston are not in a bad form themselves but West Brom are playing like one of the strongest teams in the league right now. They are in a series of three wins in a row at home without conceding a goal and four wins out of five games total in the league overall.

West Brom vs Preston: Form, Recent Games, and News

West Brom Preview

West Brom definitely have a lot more potential than what they have been showing this season and it seems like the team is finally getting back to where it belogs – near the top of the table. They had a terrible start overall and it took a while to improve but right now, they are one of three teams in the best form in the league and 4 wins in 5 games. Their attack is one of the best in the league and as long as they continue to improve defensively, they will reach the playoffs.

Preston Preview

Preston have been in the Championship for the past six seasons and something is always not enough for them to become a contender for promotion. This season has not been bad overall but the team has to stop losing games. They are just one win away from the playoff zone right now but it will not happen if they lose 3/5 games like the five most recent ones.
