West Bromwich Albion vs Swansea City Prediction: West Brom aiming to continue unbeaten run

West Bromwich Albion welcome Swansea City at the Hawthorns in Game Week 4 of the English Championship. West Brom will be looking to continue their unbeaten run this season. Who will take the three points home after 90 minutes?

Since they got knocked out in the early stages of the EFL Cup by Fleetwood Town, West Brom has been doing just fine in the Championship with four points gained after matches against Leeds United and Stoke City. Their win at the bet365 Stadium was their second win this season as goals from Karlan Grant and Josh Maja sealed maximum points.

Having played a consistent game, Tom Fellows has managed three assists in the Championship so far this season. Any sort of right-flank impressions from him raise expectations of his joining forces with the likes of Mikey Johnston to form an exciting attacking partnership.

Though there were question marks over squad strength following some of the departures in the summer, late signings by West Brom have given them some hope for their promotion aspirations.

Swansea City will seek to recover from their disappointing EFL Cup exit when they head into an awkward away trip to face West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns this weekend. The Swans are away from home for only the second time this season following four successive home matches - one of which was the poor 1-0 defeat in midweek to League One side Wycombe Wanderers. Their opening away trip was also a narrow 1-0 defeat to Middlesbrough, and they'll want to make amends by picking up a good result.

Having played host to Cardiff City in the South Wales derby last weekend, they managed to secure a 2-2 draw through Liam Cullen and Callum Robinson finding the back of the net deep into the latter stages of a tightly contested affair. New signings Florian Bianchini and Nelson Abbey-who made his first start against the cup defeat-look to make their first outings in the Championship as Swansea seek to boost options and nail a winning formula.

This season and last, matches between the sides at The Hawthorns have been high-scoring as each of their last two encounters with one another ended in five-goal thrillers. West Brom won the most recent meeting back in August 2023, despite late goals from Nathan Wood and Harry Darling for Swansea. It is a different result that the Swans will be hoping for this time around as they look to kick-start their campaign and move up the Championship table.

West Brom managed to keep Leeds United at bay in their last match, and thus is confident to do the same to Swansea. While Swansea are desperate to come back after being defeated by Wycombe in their recent match, they are expected to experience another defeat.
