Visitors Swansea City sit inside the bottom half of the division on 12 points from 10 games.

Our opponents
Swansea City may just have turned a corner in the Sky Bet Championship after what was a slow start to the season for Russell Martin's men.
The Swans head to The Hawthorns having won two of their last three games in the league, while also shipping just two goals in their last four games in the second tier.
Saturday's guests won just one of their first eight games in all competitions, but their 3-0 victory over Hull City in their most recent match suggests their season may just be on the up.
Swansea were relegated to the Championship at the end of the 2017/18 campaign and are now in their fifth successive term in the division. They've only finished outside the top ten once in the past four years, coming 15th in 2021/22.
Joel Piroe, the 23-year-old Dutchman who scored both home and away against Albion last season, is currently their top scorer with four goals.
From the Albion Archive
