THE OPPOSITION
Slaven Bilić was appointed as West Bromwich Albion’s Head Coach ahead of the 2019/20 Sky Bet Championship campaign – his first job since departing Al-Ittihad in February 2019.
After being appointed, he brought in a number of players who had a mix of experience and youth. Strikers Kenneth Zohore and Charlie Austin were among the most notable signings, whilst Romaine Sawyers returned to the Baggies to add some extra creativity to the midfield.
West Brom’s campaign got off to a great start beating Nottingham Forest 2-1 away from home on the opening day before drawing with Millwall.
Wins over Luton Town and Blackburn Rovers followed alongside draws with Reading and Derby County.
Summer signing and centre-back Semi Ajayi earned the Baggies a point in their last outing against Fulham.
The Club currently sits sixth in the Sky Bet Championship table with 13 points from seven games.
