3 Changes Expected | 4-2-3-1 Predicted West Brom Lineup vs Bristol City

West Brom will host Bristol City at the Hawthorns on Wednesday, and will look to make it four wins on the bounce in the Championship.

The Baggies’ last defeat in the league came in early October, and they will hope to remain unbeaten and reopen a two-point lead at the top of the Championship table.

Predicted West Brom Lineup vs Bristol City

Defence

Sam Johnstone is the undisputed first-choice custodian for West Brom. The 26-year-old has been in a decent form between the sticks, having mustered 4 clean sheets so far this season, and should be in goal.

Semi Ajayi, who started as a midfielder in the previous league fixture, could return to the central defensive position at the expense of Ahmed Hegazi and he is likely to be accompanied by Kyle Bartley.

After 17 appearances in the Championship so far, Ajayi averages 4.2 clearances and 0.9 tackle per game. Meanwhile, Bartley had put a strong show against the Owls as he won 8 aerial duels.

With Ferguson back in the equation, he might be summoned to start as the left-back. On the opposite side, Darnell Furlong could keep his place in the West Brom lineup as his offensive prowess and defensive actions have been vital for West Brom.

Midfield

Livermore and Sawyers are set to return to action this midweek. The midfield duo bring a lot of solidity in the middle of the park, and have been good at stopping opposition attacks.

Matheus Pereira is one of the first names to be on the team-sheet, and he should keep his place in the West Brom lineup against the Robins. Not only did he bag an assist in the previous fixture, but also won 2 aerial duels and made 2 tackles.

Attack

Hal Robson-Kanu did well against Sheffield Wednesday, and deserves to keep his place up front. The striker is likely to be supported by Grady Diangana and Matt Phillips from the flanks.
