ALBION will be looking to continue their good run of form when they travel to Goodison Park and take on Everton this Saturday (ko 3pm).
The opposition
Everton are currently sat 9th in the Premier League table having taken 27 points from their 23 matches so far this season.
They initially made a strong start under Sam Allardyce by gaining 10 points from his first four league games, but have since gone six without a win in all competitions.
Their last outing was a 4-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley on Saturday.
Last time out
Our most recent fixture against Everton was only in December as we played out a goalless draw with them at The Hawthorns.
The Baggies’ last visit to the blue half of Merseyside was in March last year when goals from Kevin Mirallas, Morgan Schneiderlin and Romelu Lukaku condemned us to a 3-0 defeat.
