This former Championship battle now happens in a much different situation than it used to be. Hull City had a fantastic run in the beginning of their Premiership debut but West Brom didn't prove that they deserved to be there from the start. The Tigers seem to have lost their momentum but it's more than a matter of honour to beat WBA at the KC Stadium.

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: The Tigers win 3-0

The Blues seemed to have lost their "Brazilian momentum". Scolari's lads draw their last two matches and missed a great opportunity to take the lead back from Liverpool. But playing against the weak WBA is the perfect chance to bring back the good performances from the beginning of the season.

The FA officials can already write down the fixtures for the next Coca-Cola Championship season including West Brom Albion. Simply hopeless.

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: Chelsea will crash the Baggies 4-0

The battle of desperation! Sunderland is only two spots and three points above WBA at the bottom part of the table. The Black Cats already let Keano go but there is still a lot to be improve for the team to dig themselves out of the relegation zone.

 And for West Brom a win over the Black Cats could represent their way out of the bottom. I keep saying that the Baggies are well on their way back to the Championship and I continuee to believe that.

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: Sunderland finally get a win 2-0

I simply don't have anything else to talk about WBA. They are not ready for the EPL. Period.

So it's Pompey's chance to win two matches in row. After running over beaten Blackburn now it's time to face the worst team of the Premiership. 

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: Pompey win 1-3

Brave Wigan secured the 3 points at home against Everton and climbed a little bit farther from the relegation zone. But there's still danger. A wim against the Baggies would put the LAtics in a much more confortable situation and sink West Brom even more.

I believe West Brom is already of a way to repeat their 2007/2008 run at the Championship in 2009/2010 because with a record of 5 loses and 1 draw in the last 6 matches I can't see things getting much better for the Baggies.

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: Wigan win 3-0

Stoke got too excited with the two surprising wins but reality came back hard on the Portters. After a draw against Wigan they were crushed by Manchester United 5-0 and if their crowd of thugs and hooligans fail to help the team get a win this weekend we might see Stoke back to the relegation zone.

West Brom came on top in the League Championship last season finishing two points ahead of Stoke City and six ahead of Hull. But as they sit at the bottom of the EPL table they watch both their Championship do a descent job at the top flight while they seem to have a stamp on their passport sayin "Back to the Championship". A win against Stoke City could change things a little bit for the Baggies. 

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: Stoke thug-power will prevail over the Baggies 2-0

All right, all right, Liverpool lost one. It was against a ascending Tottenham, a desprate Tottenham and playing without Torres does make a lot of difference. Well, enough excuses as I'm not even a 'Pool fan. But I can't see the Reds having any problems against WBA at Anfield, do you?

The Baggies draw with Blackburn at home. A result that didn't quite help them a lot. They are second to last just two points above the Spurs. The Coca-Cola Championship is waiting for you with open arms Baggies.

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: Liverpool easy win 3-0

The Baggies lost their last two matches and they are now very close to the relegation zone. No surprises there, right? What else would you expect me to say. They lost to an unstable Newcastle and helped the Toon get out of the dreadful pit.

Paul Ince's side took the lead against Aston Villa but didn't have the strength to secure the three points at the Villa Park and ended up losing 3-2. Sitting no at the 13th position with 12 points the Rovers will be saved from the relegation zone even if they lose this weekend but I'm sure that's not part of Ince's plans.

GOBSMACK PREDICTION: Rovers win on the road (?) maybe (?) 0-1
