Premier League: West Bromwich Albion vs Manchester City preview

Premier League: West Bromwich Albion vs Manchester City preview
Manchester City have been quite convincing at the Etihad Stadium this season but they seem a different team away from home, having lost four times on their travels in the Premier League this season. The Citizens are third in the Premier League table after two solid consecutive wins, 6-0 against Tottenham and 3-0 against Swansea. They have won just one away game so far this season though, 3-1 at West Ham in October. "You have to look at the positive side - even if we lost against Cardiff, Aston Villa and Sunderland away, we still managed to play better than the opposition," left back Gael Clichy says. "This is a new team with a new manager and new players and we are only going to get better. We are confident it will get better, hopefully starting on Wednesday at West Brom." West Brom are unbeaten in their last four home league games but they come into the game after a 2-1 defeat against Newcastle United at St James' Park last weekend. City have won the last three meetings against West Brom, scoring seven goals in the process and are unbeaten in the last seven matches against the Baggies. The last win for West Brom against Manchester City was in December 2008. The hosts will be without suspended midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu while City have received a boost as captain Vincent Kompany is fit again and set to make a return to action after a thigh injury. Here are the odds for Wednesday night's match at Bet365: West Brom win - 5/1 Draw - 16/5 Manchester City win - 8/13
