Last season’s game 29, the victory over Manchester United, proved to be Albion’s last win of the season as they picked up just four points in their last nine games. This season’s more impressive win over Arsenal keeps up the hope of reaching 50 points.
Game 30 has not been successful for the Baggies in their Premier League seasons with the only victory being the memorable 4-1 at the Valley in the Great Escape season as Robert Earnshaw scored Albion’s first Premier League hattrick.
