Dick Sheppard keeps Leicester at bay as Albion come from 2-0 down to win 3-2 at Filbert Street, 23rd March 1968

We need a win. That's the thankless, daunting situation on Planet Albion as we enter a cramped October fixture schedule which sees us playing back to back away games before hosting Manchester City at home. Blowing two points against Watford now leaves us winless for the last two months, and playing for 0-0s in the upcoming fixtures isn't going to cut it.

We can take some comfort from the fact that we were in more or less the same boat when we visited the King Power Stadium last autumn and delivered a hugely entertaining performance which resulted in three sorely-needed points. Hopefully, if we approach Monday night's encounter in the same way as we did the first half at the Emirates - only this time with an official who didn't do his training at the Stevie Wonder Academy of Refereeing Excellence - we can do the same again.
