West Brom stuns West Ham with clinical display

A commanding 3-1 victory for the visitors at the London Stadium.

West Brom turned the tables on West Ham with a confident 3-1 win in the Championship. F. Myhre opened the scoring early on before J. Bowen pulled one back for West Ham, but goals from J. Morgan just after the break and C. Styles in the second half sealed the deal for the visitors. This result defied Fipster's high-confidence prediction of a West Ham win, proving the visitors' edge on the day.
