[Ska'dForLife-WBA]

Now winless in seven - our worst run since the eight that Steve Bruce served up on his way out two years ago - the last thing Albion need at the moment is an encounter with a side we haven't beaten since August 2017, but all the same, 4th-place Burnley are rolling up to the Hawthorns tonight in search of consecutive league wins over us for the first time since August 2007. Keeping clean sheets at home hasn't been a problem for us so far this season, but alas, finding the net has been the issue: if we fail to score tonight, it'll be the first time since April 1939 we've gone goalless for four consecutive matches at the Hawthorns outside the top flight.

A visit to struggling Hull is next up on Sunday, and might be the friendlier prospect to get back to winning ways before another fortnight's break. But one way or another, the big result's got to come from somewhere, and the sooner the better.
