    Stoke City are fantastic value @ 1.91 in my opinion, A couple of reasons why i believe this:

    *West Brom will be looking to end a 29-year hodoo when they visit Stoke on Monday. The Baggies haven't won away at their Staffordshire rivals since 1982, and have never enjoyed a victory at the Britannia Stadium.
    *Stoke City have traditionally been a bogey side for West Brom. They have lost only one of their last 26 league clashes, dating back to April 1989.
    *Stoke City have won seven of the last eight league meetings between the two clubs, including a Premier League double during 2008/09, the only season both clubs have been in the top flight since 1984/85.
    *West Brom have the worst defensive record in the top flight, having let in 52 goals. They have gone a club record 25 Premier League games without a clean sheet.
    *Stoke have won their last three Home Games and West Brom have lost their last five Away Games.
    *Stoke defeated West Brom 3-0 earlier on in the season at The Hawthorns.

    West Brom now have Hodgson as a manager so of course they will be terrible on the road.

    im on the under in this one small. hodgson more of a defensive guy, stoke games have been trending under lately. the baggies awful defense keeps this from being a bigger play. stoke with something like 9 outta 11 games with 2 goals total or less in premier league games.

    game feels like a 1-1 draw to me, amazingly though, stoke only have 3 draws all season, the lowest in all the league.

    Stoke City Line-up with John Carew, Jonathan Walters & Kenwyne Jones all in the starting Starting XI, That's a good aerial threat for Stoke alongside joint top scorer Robert Huth with Rory Delap also starting it means they will always be a danger from his bullet thrown-in aswell good news against a small West Brom side who Line-up with just the one striker in Marc-Antoine Fortune.

    Typical Stoke City goal from a Set-Piece as they hit West Brom with a Rory Delap header from a Jermaine Pennant corner.

    West Brom +1 +150 anyone?

    West Brom putting the pressure on now, looks like a free roll.

    Stoke City 1-1 West Bromich Albion (Full/Time)

    Terrible decision for the West Brom 'GOAL' Carlos Vela was offside and the Linesman from that angle should have picked up on it , very poor officiating, Sorry guys but we were ROBBED tonight.

    Yea everyone (including myself) on Stoke was robbed on the equaliser.
    Truth is WBA should have won it at the end there!
    Had the over as well so least a baggies goal would have hit that, but no it would be 1-1 to f**k both lol

    Unlucky all who were on
