West Bromwich vs Blackpool: Second half will be more productive than the first half

On Matchday 42 of the Championship, West Bromwich take on Blackpool at home. Will the Baggies manage to beat their opponents for the fourth time in a row at home?

After a 2-0 home win over Bournemouth, West Bromwich Albion dropped their next game in front of the home crowd. The Baggies' opponent in the 41st round of the Championships was Stoke City. West Bromwich Albion conceded three goals and responded with only one action. With 57 points, West Bromwich are in 12th place in the standings.

After beating Swansea City 1-0, Blackpool managed to pick up only two points in their next two games in the Championship. The club shared points with Sheffield United (0-0) and Blackburn Rovers (1-1). Blackpool were unsuccessful in their matches against Nottingham Forest (1-4) and Preston North End (0-1). With 53 points, Blackpool are 16th in the table.

It is unlikely that many would have guessed before the start of the campaign that West Bromwich and Blackpool would be playing at the same level. While Blackpool have not jumped over the top and failed this season, WBA have disappointed their fans with a poor series of performances. Unsurprisingly, at the end of the season, these teams are separated by just four points. I expect the encounter to be quite interesting and productive. I give preference to the second half, which will see the highest number of goals scored.

• The second half is more productive than the first for 2.10;
• Total Over (1.5) goals in the second half for 2.34;
• Both teams to score for 2.13.
