First thought about this one was an away win. West Brom have lost last seven home games against Utd, run from 1984. Man Utd already got pretty big confidence with a Community Shield win. Rooney, Young and Nani looked very dangerous. But on the other hand, same United noticed just five away wins whole last season. With Roy Hodgson, The Baggies play with some confidence, especially at The Hawthorns. Smaller pitch dimensions don’t fit well to bigger clubs, their passing game and domination. Shane Long will have his debut, partner in attack will be, last season excellent Peter Odemwingie. Few players on both sides are doubtful.
Think WBA will be able to make a serious threat and score at least once. Last seven games between these rivals ended with three or more goals. Over for me.
