Match Preview – 13:30 Kick-Off at The Hawthornes, West Brom

Tony Pulis is once again producing the Premier League goods for a midtable team and though his preferred style of play polarises opinion, to say the least, the Baggies have enjoyed a great season so far by their modest standards. A top half finish is well within their capabilities, thought their poor recent run of 1 win in 6 has set them back. They did take an impressive 4 points from games against Arsenal and Man Utd in that period, however.

Liverpool remain one of the Premier League’s most unpredictable teams. Their most recent win at Stoke was the first time they have won a league game that forward Sadio Mane hasn’t started. Their summer signing from Southampton is still on the injury table heading into Sunday’s clash. Liverpool have only kept 1 clean sheet in the Premier League in 2017. They are unbeaten in 6 Premier League games.

In the reverse fixture between the 2 back in October, that man Sadio Mane was pivotal once again, scoring in a 2-1 win for Liverpool. Read our West Bromwich Albion vs Liverpool betting tips and selected odds from online bookmakers below.

West Bromwich Albion vs Liverpool Predictions

This is the kind of fixture that Liverpool always seem to find tricky. Tony Pulis loves nothing more than getting one over on the league’s bigger sides, but his side have just 1 clean sheet in 8 and they are coming up against the Premier League’s top scorers. Liverpool are also defensively suspect, nobody has conceded more goal’s in the league’s top 7. Given both sides defensive weaknesses, a score draw is on the cards here.

UniBet have odds of 4/1 for the game to finish level with both teams scoring and that is an offer well worth taking. Over 2.5 goals at evens is also well worth your consideration – those odds are available with Bet365.
