West Brom v Blackpool - live updates

Key Events

  • FT: West Brom 2-1 Blackpool
  • Seasiders head to The Hawthorns for Good Friday encounter
  • Neil Critchley’s side looking for first win in five

Gary Madine works the ball left to James Husband, whose lofted ball is cleared behind for a corner.

Pool getting into plenty of good positions.

Josh Bowler waltzes his way into the West Brom box before his shot is blocked.

Blackpool getting into some cracking positions time and time again, but their decision-making at the vital moment is letting them down.

25 - Another missed opportunity

Pool win the ball back high up the pitch once again, leaving Keshi Anderson in space in the Baggies box.

He hesitates, stumbles a little and plays the ball straight to a home defender. Another opportunity missed.

Blackpool have a chance to break as Jordan Gabriel picks out Josh Bowler, but his pass into the centre is straight to a Baggies player.

Wasteful.

James Husband sticks to his task and defends well to deny Callum Robinson, conceding a corner in the process.

Callum Connolly tries his luck from 30 yards out and makes a decent enough contact, but it sails comfortably wide.

The game has died down a little since the bright opening.

Now it very much looks like two teams with little to play for.

Chris Maxwell gets down well to tip Jayson Molumby's curling effort around the post.

Shayne Lavery wins the ball back high up the pitch, plays it across the six-yard box towards Gary Madine who is inches away from reaching it.

Seasiders very bright early on.
