West Brom 2-0 Bournemouth - Report
Albion bounced back from their dreadful display at Birmingham to secure a convincing win over Bournemouth.
Steve Bruce's side underperformed massively in Sunday's derby with the Baggies failing to register a single shot on target as they fell to a 1-0 defeat.
But they were a side transformed at The Hawthorns with goals from Alex Mowatt and Andy Carroll putting them 2-0 up after 12 minutes.
Scott Parker's side are widely expected to go on and win automatic promotion this season.
But they failed to lay a glove on Albion who cruised to victory from that point.
Dominic Solanke did had a couple of half chances to pull a goal back for the visitors.
Overall, though, the Baggies defended superbly with their high-flying opponents restricted to very little.
REPORT
Bruce described Albion's game at Blues on Sunday as one of the worst matches he'd ever seen.
So it was no surprise to see the boss make changes for the visit of the high-flying Cherries.
Having both put in poor displays at St Andrew's, strikers Karlan Grant and Callum Robinson were absent from the starting XI.
Instead, Grady Diangana and Carroll got the nod up front with Robinson on the bench and Grant missing completely from the match-day 18.
Those changes aside, Bruce stuck with the team that had started the last five games.
