Excitement is building for the new Sky Bet Championship campaign following the release of the 2023/24 fixtures – and below are some key dates for your diary.
Albion will begin the campaign with an away game at Blackburn Rovers on Saturday, August 5, before hosting their first match at The Hawthorns against Swansea City on Saturday, August 12.
Here’s how August shapes up for Carlos Corberán’s men:
Date | Fixture |
Saturday, August 5 | Blackburn Rovers (A) |
Saturday, August 12 | Swansea City (H) |
Saturday, August 19 | Leeds United (A) |
Saturday, August 26 | Middlesbrough (H) |
There are plenty of clashes against our Midlands neighbours to look forward to this season.
It will be a trip to Birmingham City on Saturday, October 7 which kicks off the first of eight local matches with Blues, Coventry City, Leicester City and Stoke City.
Albion have faced five of the six Championship newcomers in recent years, but in Plymouth Argyle Corberán’s side take on a team they haven’t played for more than a decade.
The Green Army come to The Hawthorns for the first time since 2009 on Saturday, October 21, and the Baggies are due to make the reverse journey on Saturday, January 27.
Another packed festive period awaits Albion, which will see them face four fixtures in the space of 10 days over Christmas.
The Baggies host Norwich City on Boxing Day, followed by a journey to Swansea City on New Year’s Day.
Albion visit Millwall on Good Friday, which is on March 29, 2024, before hosting Watford on Easter Monday (April 1, 2024).
The Baggies’ final away game will be at Sheffield Wednesday’s Hillsborough on Saturday, April 27.
And they will end the season on home soil, hosting Preston North End on Saturday, May 4.
