Pick of the stats: West Bromwich Albion v Wrexham

[BBC] This is the first league meeting between these two sides at The Hawthorns (15:00 BST) with both having different aims for the remainder of the season. West Brom have moved four points clear of the Championship's relegation zone and are hoping to win three games in a row for the first time this season. Wrexham will move back into the play-off places with at least a point with Southampton not in league action as they face Arsenal in the FA Cup over the weekend.

West Brom won the reverse fixture 3-2 in August, and have done the double over each of the past four opponents they have faced for the first time in a league campaign (Scunthorpe 2007-08, Colchester 2006-07, Gillingham 2000-01, Wimbledon 2000-01). Wrexham have lost just one of their past nine Football League games played on Good Friday (W5 D3), going down 3-0 at home to Swindon in April 1984. West Brom have won their past two league games, as many as they had in their previous 19 (D6 L11).

They have kept a clean sheet in these wins, last winning three in a row without conceding in September 2024. Wrexham have won 11 of their 17 league games since Christmas (D2 L4), with only Norwich (12) winning more in the Championship in that time. Only Hull (14.

6%) have a higher shot conversion rate than Wrexham (13. 6%) in the Championship this season, with the Welsh ranking fifth for goals (60) but only 19th for total shots (440). [BBC]
