Match Facts

Middlesbrough have lost their last two league games against West Brom, last losing more in a row between 2008 and 2010 (four).
West Brom are looking for their first league double over Middlesbrough since the 2009-10 campaign under Roberto Di Matteo.
The two sides to have won the most points in the Championship across 2023 are Middlesbrough (69) and West Bromwich Albion (67). It’s Middlesbrough’s most league wins (21) in a year since winning 22 in 2018, while the Baggies – currently on 19 league wins in 2023 – last won 20+ games in a year in 2019 (24).
West Brom have alternated between a win (4) and defeat (3) in their last seven away league matches and are looking for consecutive away wins for the first time since April.
West Brom’s Brandon Thomas-Asante has been involved in five goals in his last 10 Championship appearances (4 goals, 1 assist), scoring their equaliser against Stoke last time out.
