West Brom return to Premier League, but can they survive?
West Brom second-favourites to be relegated from Premier League
The bookmakers think it is going to be a tough season ahead for the Baggies.
After finishing second in the Championship, they return to the top flight after a two year absence.
However, they are 11/10 to be relegated. Only Fulham are shorter than them in the betting.
Slaven Bilic also returns to the Premier League, and the fans and players both are firmly behind the manger.
They may still need to make some additions to their squad to boost their chances of survival.
Matheus Pereira was sensational in the Championship last season, scoring eight goals and producing 16 assist to guide them back to the top flight. The exciting Brazilian could make a big impact this season.
Could West Brom surprise a few?
Bookmakers don’t think so. West Brom are 12/1 to finish in the top half of the table.
However, some firms do make them as short as 17/2. You feel they will need to bring in a high quality striker if they want to produce a top half finish.

Who will be West Brom’s top goalscorer?
Bookmakers are not actually offering odds on any West Brom player to be the Premier League top goalscorer.
This backs up the notion they badly need to sign a striker. Robson-Kanu and Charlie Austin both scored 10 goals last season in the Championship, but have a tough ask if it is between them to score all the goals this season for the Baggies.
Next Premier League manager to be sacked: is Slaven Bilic safe?
Bookmakers make Bilic as big as 14/1 to be the first manager to leave their post. However, one firm makes him as short as 9/1.
The Croatian seems to have a strong backing from the fans, and is likely to be given more time by the club than some of his rivals, should they start the season badly.
