West Brom to turn heat up on Swansea boss Paul Clement

Kick-off 3pm Saturday

Alan Pardew got a positive response from West Brom in his first match as head coach and can build on last Saturday's 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace by steering them to a victory over Swansea.

Albion were playing cautiously under Tony Pulis and there was more freedom about their approach against Palace.

They were a threat in attack with Salomon Rondon causing problems and they looked solid at the back.

Swansea have looked all over the place at both ends of the pitch and another defeat could pile the pressure on under-fire manager Paul Clement.

Recommendation
West Brom
1pt 2-1 general
