Albion’s Premier League Season Comparison – 23 games

Published on: Author: Jon Want

Albion didn’t quite manage to record away win number four, although they had the chances to have won the game.

This season’s points total is just one behind the Baggies’ Premier League record from the first 23 games of 2012/13 and victory against Stoke City on Saturday will make this their most successful season after 24 matches. Albion still haven’t won game 23, and only once have they taken three points from game 24 – that was the vitally important victory against Manchester City at the Hawthorns in the January of the Great Escape section.
