First Goalscorer Kasey Palmer 14/1 with Bet365

West Brom have lost back-to-back games going down 3-0 to Bristol City in the FA Cup last weekend and 2-1 to Burnley the weekend previously. Not too much should be read into these results given the Clarets are top of the table and the FA Cup is not a priority for the Black Country outfit.

One thing to look at is the general up turn in form and performances under Carlos Corberan with four Championship victories in their last five and nine in 11. Brandon Thomas-Assante is a player playing well for the hosts with five in his last nine in all competitions.

Coventry put a six-game winless run in all competitions behind them last weekend with a 2-0 home victory over Huddersfield. They sit in 13th spot but are just four behind the play-offs thanks to the remarkable unsung work done by manager Mark Robins.

The Sky Blues have lost each of their last three on the road but have netted in four of their last six on their travels including at Sheffield United and Watford. Kasey Palmer is a player in form with three in four while if they can keep in demand 12 goal striker Viktor Gyokeres they will always carry a goal threat.

West Brom vs Coventry match stats

The Baggies have won six straight here at home and they should get back to winning ways in this one. These victories have all gone to nil but given the previously mentioned goal threat of the Sky Blues take this one to be a home success and both teams to find the back of the net.

Kasey Palmer has three in four in all competitions for the Sky Blues and he goes off a decent price to net at anytime here. West Brom did ship three last weekend to Bristol City so Coventry should be confident they have the tools to cause some damage.
