West Brom to finish in the top 6 of the Championship have shortened from 11/10 to 8/11 with Betfair Sportsbook, with three bookmakers cutting their odds.
The odds on West Brom to finish in the top 6 of the Championship have been slashed from 11/10 to 8/11 with Betfair Sportsbook, and on current form it is hard to argue with the bookies.
Three bookmakers have cut their odds on West Brom to finish in the top 6 of the Championship, with 11/8 the best price available at Bet Victor.
James Morrison's side won 3-1 away at West Ham last Saturday.
That result lifted Albion into fourth place in the Championship table.
Middlesbrough remain the favourites in the market, with West Brom seventh-shortest.
Last Saturday's 3-1 win at London Stadium is what got this price moving. Felix Horn Myhre opened the scoring, with Jimmy-Jay Morgan and Callum Styles also finding the net, and that spread of goals tells you this was no one-man show. Morrison called it a "complete performance" afterwards, praising the tactical discipline and defensive shape of his squad. Going to West Ham, scoring freely and keeping the back line organised is exactly the kind of away day that makes the market sit up.
The bigger picture backs it up. Albion went into November having collected 10 points from their previous four Championship outings, and they now sit fourth on the log. That is top-six form by any measure, so the bookmakers cutting their price looks like a reaction to a proper run rather than one good afternoon in London. A side that shares the goals around and holds its shape on the road is a side that can stay in the mix over a long season, and that balance is the real reason the money has followed Albion.
Championship Top 6 Finish odds

Who is favourite to finish in the top 6 of the Championship alongside West Brom?
Middlesbrough are the favourites in this market at a best price of 1/33 with Bet Victor, and nobody is offering them anything generous. West Brom sit seventh-shortest, with West Ham, Wolverhampton and Southampton all priced ahead of them. Southampton are the side to watch most closely, having won four of their previous five Championship matches, so the race just below the leaders is anything but settled.
Middlesbrough – the shortest price in the market and the clear favourites.
West Ham – 1/12 with Paddy Power, despite a second consecutive home league defeat when Albion came to town.
Southampton – 1/3 with Paddy Power, fifth in the table and one point behind West Brom.
West Brom – seventh-shortest in the market, fourth in the table and the selection the money is following.

Can West Brom finish in the top 6 of the Championship?
Southampton's visit to The Hawthorns on Tuesday night is the immediate test, and Millwall come to the same ground on Saturday in Albion's final fixture before the November international break. Back-to-back home games is a decent stretch to bank points, but Morrison has to manage it without midfielder Toby Collyer, defender Nolan Galves and winger Mikey Johnston, all sidelined through injury. That will test the depth of the squad. Still, the West Ham performance showed goals coming from several sources and a defensive shape that holds, and that balance is what makes this squad hard to bet against. Our prediction is that the shortening is justified, and 11/8 with Bet Victor is the price worth taking rather than settling for the shorter quotes elsewhere.
