Carlos Corberan would have been relieved to finally start West Brom's season and improve the team's morale after dealing with behind-the-scenes issues. Unfortunately, their first game ended in a 2-1 defeat against Blackburn Rovers, with Corberan being dismissed from the dugout. This was not the desired start for the team, especially when momentum is crucial for their season. The team followed this setback with another loss against Stoke City in the EFL Cup, highlighting the challenges Corberan faces in the upcoming season. Although West Brom is not considered a top contender for promotion, there are still expectations for the club, especially in terms of developing young talent. Their next game, taking place on familiar territory, might provide the much-needed boost for the team. However, they will face tough competition from opponents who have had a successful start to the season.

West Bromwich Albion Predicted Lineup

Palmer; Furlong, Ajayi, Bartley, Townsend; Yokuslu, Chalobah; Wallace, Swift, Phillips; Thomas-Asante

Swansea City form

Swansea and Birmingham City played to a 1-1 draw on August 5, which is a respectable result considering both teams are strong contenders for promotion. In the EFL Cup, Swansea emerged as 3-0 winners against Northampton Town, with Josh Ginnelly's impressive goal destined to be remembered. As Michael Duff takes over from Russell Martin, he faces the challenge of building upon his predecessor's work. However, Duff aims to leave his own mark on the team and has already made smart moves in adding players like Ginnelly. The retention of striker Joel Piroe, who scored twice in the previous game, is crucial for Swansea's future success.

Swansea City Predicted Lineup

Rushworth; Ashby, Darling, Cabango, Wood, Key; Fulton, Grimes, Paterson; Yates, Piroe
