West Bromwich Albion suffered a 2-1 loss to Plymouth in their last game. Jayson Molumby scored the first goal of the game in the 74th minute, but the lead only lasted three minutes before they conceded another goal in the 88th minute. They now remain winless in five of their last six games. However, they remain unbeaten in their last 8 games at home. The Baggies sit 6th on the table with 44 points in 30 games, scoring 39 goals and conceding 27.
West Brom will be without Alex Palmer going forward after the goalkeeper made a deadline move to Ipswich Town in the winter window. He will be replaced by Josh Griffiths, who was replaced from his loan move with Bristol Rovers. In the treatment room, Semi Ajayi, Daryl Dike, and Josh Maja are all out of this game.

Expert Betting Tips
West Brom have been doing well this season, though most of their games have ended goalless. However, I see them getting a win in this game because Sheffield Wednesday have won just one of their last five away matches, losing three. Also, both sides have seen lots of BTTS results in their recent games and I expect this game to follow suit.
Our prediction for the match is for both teams to score (BTTS) for odds of 1.80 at Bet365.
Our second prediction is to see more than two goals for odds of 2.00 at Betway.
Our third prediction is for West Brom to win for odds of 1.85 at 1xbet.
