Mowbray the Baggies boss has already admitted that he won’t change the style of play that his side uses and this may be a good thing for this clash.
Arsenal may not have scored in a while but it’s only a matter of time before they start converting some of the many chances that have been falling there way. Van Persie could have had at least 3 against Fulham and at least they are creating chances as opposed to sitting back and waiting for things to happen. Its do or die now for West Brom as they sit bottom of the table 4 points adrift of Stoke and Boro. At this stage they have nothing to lose and they have to attack teams. To be fair to them they have tried to do this and have not sat back and tried to play for draws as some teams have. Some of their games have been riddled with goals and there have been 10 goals in the last 2 games at the Hawthorns.
Verdict
I see a few goals in this. Personally I wouldn’t touch the odds on the Arsenal win but West Brom will give away plenty of chances and Arsenal have to score eventually. Likewise Arsenal gave Fulham plenty of chances at the weekend and West Brom are a team that can punish them on their own turf. Over 2.5 for me.
Pick : Over 2.5 goals
Odds : 2.00
Stake : 6 / 10
