Championship team of the week dominated by West Brom and Blackburn Rovers - as one player scores perfect 10/10

The fifth team of the week of the 2024/25 Championship season has been named.

West Bromwich Albion have more players in the new team of the week than any other Championship side following Sunday’s impressive 3-0 victory at Portsmouth, a result that soared Carlos Corberan’s side up to the summit of the league standings.

Blackburn Rovers aren’t too far behind the Baggies, with one fewer member of their squad in the XI named by WhoScored. John Eustace’s side also managed a 3-0 win at the weekend, over Bristol City on home soil. Rovers are now up to 3rd in the Championship, two points off West Brom in top spot.

The other clubs included in this instalment of the team of the week are Derby County, Luton Town, Swansea City, Coventry City, Preston North End and Sunderland. It may be a surprise to see the latter three teams in there as none of them managed victories, but individual players stepped up nonetheless.
