We said: West Bromwich Albion 2-0 Rotherham United

After failing to keep a clean sheet in the last three matches, Wednesday's battle versus Rotherham presents West Brom with a near-perfect opportunity to get back to their defensive best. With their fate already confirmed, relegated Rotherham could play with greater freedom at The Hawthorns, but we still feel that the Millers will not be strong enough to earn a result. Read more.
