Albion’s Premier League Season Comparison – 32 games

Published on: Author: Jon Want

A home defeat leaves the 2017 Albion side level with the 2013 one on 44 points from 32 games still needing six points from the remaining six games to hit the half century.

Worryingly, in the equivalent fixtures last season, the Baggies picked up just one point, at home to Liverpool on the final day. They lost at home to Chelsea and Leicester City, away at Swansea and Man City, and away at Newcastle which is the equivalent fixture to Burnley^.
