West Bromwich Albion and Manchester United will square off in the last match to be played on Saturday in the Premier League Round 17.
West Brom is sitting on an excellent 7th place in the Premier League after having great success in the last six weeks. WBA has 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the previous 6 matches (all Premier League), with the only defeat coming in a good performance at Chelsea (0-1).
The visitors have gained some momentum lately after 3 wins in 4 matches and an undefeated run of 9 matches in all competitions. Nevertheless, the level of performance wasn`t always there for United, who was able to scrape some close results – as it was the case midweek at Crystal Palace, when United won 2-1 via an 88th minute Ibrahimovic strike. United still has a long way to go however, as they are still 6 points behind the Top 4.

Berahino and Myhill continue to miss out for West Brom, while Evans is questionable. United will be without Mkhitaryan, Shaw, Bailly and probably Smalling.
West Bromwich Albion: Foster – Nyom, McAuley, Olsson, Brunt – Fletcher, Yacob – Chadli, Morrison, Phillips – Rondon
Manchester United: De Gea – Valencia, Rojo, Jones, Darmian – Carrick, Herrera – Martial, Pogba, Mata – Ibrahimovic
West Brom definitely looks capable to snatch at least a draw here, but it remains to be seen how they will handle this busy period of games, as they do not possess the depth that a club like Manchester United has. However, it`s still early in the Holiday season, so WBA should have plenty of gas left in the tank for another week or so – especially as they don`t have many injuries and suspensions.
United is playing better lately but still not at an elite level and should find it hard to break down a solid, in form and defensively sound team like West Brom. However, their recent improved form should allow them to at least get a point.
My tip is the draw, I think there`s very good value in the odds on this bet and it is worth a shot with low – medium stakes. Prediction: West Bromwich Albion – Manchester United 1-1.
