The Pulis Way
It only seems to go wrong for West Brom when they open up; something not lost on their manager.
Given the results West Brom have produced on the road this season (W2 D1 L1) and Norwich’s morale-sapping hiding at St James’s Park last time out - the away win is enticing here.
If we’re going with the bookies’ underdogs then the smartest move of all is to take the 11/1 on offer that the Baggies will triumph 1-0 - the scoreline in all their victories in 2015-16.
This is classic Tony Pulis, who has built a successful career on setting up his teams to absorb pressure and apply a sucker punch at some point.
The Canaries have conceded at least once in all their league games while WBA have somehow kept an astounding 18 clean sheets in all competitions since the boss arrived in January.
