The EFL Championship match between Bristol City vs West Brom will take place at Ashton Gate on Saturday at 7:30 pm IST.
Bristol City welcomes West Bromwich Albion this Saturday in the Championship, and both teams are positioned right outside the playoff spots. There’s just a single point difference between them, with Bristol City in eighth place and West Bromwich Albion in 11th. However, a victory for either team at Ashton Gate could propel them into the top six.
Bristol City fans are hungry for a prolonged promotion challenge after years of inconsistency. So far in the 2023-24 season, they’ve had a promising start under Nigel Pearson, amassing eight points from five games with just one loss, 2-0 to unbeaten Birmingham City. After that setback, Bristol City managed a 1-1 draw at Hull City and secured a 2-1 victory at Swansea City. Despite trailing early, they scored twice in the opening 14 minutes of the second half for their second away win. Pearson is still seeking his first league win at Ashton Gate, hoping to achieve it against one of his former teams.
West Bromwich Albion, under the management of Carlos Corberan, seemed to be making significant strides forward with a three-match unbeaten streak in the league. Accumulating seven points from clashes against Swansea City, Leeds United, and Middlesbrough, they were on the verge of breaking into the top six. However, their momentum was abruptly halted by an unexpected 2-1 defeat to Huddersfield Town, with Jack Rudoni scoring a last-minute winner at The Hawthorns. While Corberan may stress that the season is still in its early stages, he acknowledges that his team missed an opportunity to challenge for the top spot in the short term. Furthermore, West Bromwich Albion has yet to keep a clean sheet this season, conceding nine goals in their five second-tier fixtures.
Bristol City probable starting lineup: O’Leary, Gardner-Hickman, Vyner, Naismith, Pring, Williams, James, Knight, Sykes, Wells, Bell
West Bromwich Albion probable starting lineup: Palmer, Furlong, Ajayi, Kipre, Townsend, Molumby, Yokuslu, Sarmiento, Swift, Phillips, Thomas-Asante
