Tom Rogic decision made as defender regains spot - West Brom predicted XI gallery vs Burnley
Here’s how we predict West Bromwich Albion to line up against Burnley on Friday evening in the Sky Bet Championship.
West Bromwich Albion will be eager to continue their brilliant form as they take on Sky Bet Championship leaders Burnley away from home on Friday evening. The Baggies have staggered everyone as they have soared themselves into the playoff spots just under three months on from being rock bottom of the division.
Carlos Corberan has totally revolutionised the football club, it seems, as Albion have won 10 games out of 13 in all competitions since the Spaniard first took to the dugout. Relegation began to look like a real possibility if they were not to buck their ideas up, but they have done far more than that as promotion could now genuinely be on the cards.
There is of course plenty of the season still to play, with 21 matches to come, but there is a lot of optimism in West Bromwich. Friday brings a huge challenge, however, as Corberan’s men take on a Burnley side with just two defeats in 27 fixtures this term. Vincent Kompany’s side team have won seven successive Championship games, with their last loss at Sheffield United.
Albion will have hope of getting at least a point from the clash as Burnley have drawn eight this season, but they will have to be at their absolute best to pull it off. With that in mind, here is the very strong West Brom starting XI we expect at Turf Moor. See below.

9. RW: Jed Wallace
One of the best creative forces in the West Brom squad, Wallace is a must-have in our predicted XI.

10. LW: Grady Diangana
With Matt Phillips heading off injured against Chesterfield, the left flank is opened up to the pacy Diangana.

11. ST: Daryl Dike
In top form with three goals and an assist in just 389 mins since returning from injury. Managed his first full 90 of the season away at Luton Town.
