Manchester City's struggles to keep their form in 2016 have practically written them off from the English Premier League title race, and if they keep playing as inconsistently as they have recently, they could be stripped from their 4th place by Manchester United. In order to avoid it, Pellegrini's crew must earn three points against West Brom, in a game that could prove to be more difficult for them on the pitch than how it looks on paper.
Following their 2-2 tie against Paris Saint Germain last Wednesday, the Sky Blues will try to start a series of games without a loss for the first time in 2016. Out of the last six Premier League games, Pellegrini's men have been able to win just a couple of them, and a victory against WBA would certainly come in handy for them.
For this match, the Chilean boss will miss two key midfielders, as David Silva and Yaya Toure will watch this game from the stands due to injury.
On the other side of the pitch, Tony Pulis' crew has climbed back in the EPL standings in the most recent weeks, although a loss and a late draw against Sunderland last week stole much of their flair. For this game, the Baggies will not have Chris Brunt available due to injury, while James Morrison and Callum McManaman are struggling to be fit to play, and their availability will be determined hours before the game.
Head to head
These teams have played 122 games between them in all competitions, with the Citizens taking home 55 of those meetings. West Bromwich hasn't been able to defeat Manchester City in their most recent eleven games, which include ten losses and only one draw back in 2011.
