West Brom had lost 1-0 on the road the last match-day, against Stoke, which was their first defeat in the Championship in 2021-22. They had lost only one other time in any competition this season – against Arsenal in the EFL Cup
Going on, their experience from their stint in the Premier League have been helping them a great deal, and they seem determined to go after one of the top-two spots, in order to secure a quick promotion.
In the meantime, Birmingham had lost 0-3 at home against Nottingham Forest, and they had lost four of their past five fixtures as well.

西布罗姆在最后一个比赛日客场0 - 1输给斯托克城，这是他们在2021-22年英冠的第一次失利。在本赛季的所有比赛中，他们只输过一次——在EFL杯上输给阿森纳
继续说下去，他们在英超的经历给了他们很大的帮助，他们似乎下定决心要争取前两名中的一个，以确保快速提升。
与此同时，伯明翰在主场以0-3输给了诺丁汉森林，他们在过去的五场比赛中也输掉了四场。
