Matt Maher: West Brom have already upset the odds once
The odds aren’t in Albion’s favour as they look to win promotion through the play-offs.
In the past decade only two teams, Huddersfield and Villa, have gone up to the Premier League after finishing fifth in the Championship table.
But then Carlos Corberan and his players might claim to have already pulled off a big surprise simply by being there in the first place.
