West Brom v Plymouth preview: Albion return for key run to test top-six ambitions
Championship action returns this weekend and Albion’s five fixtures between now and the international break next month can dictate the season ahead.
The regular breaks for international action – another in November means three in as many months – is frustrating for fans and managers alike, making momentum tough to come by.
We are 11 games into the league campaign, roughly the period things begin to settle down, and certainly over the next handful of games the Championship will begin to resemble something like a pattern for the months ahead.
Carlos Corberan’s Albion find themselves middle of the road, though closer points-wise to the top six places to those down the lower reaches ahead of tomorrow’s visit of newly-promoted Plymouth Argyle.
But anything less than a return of eight to 10 points from the 15 available over the next month will see Albion lose ground on sides they are competing with above.
