Albion 0 Stoke 1

Albion were beaten 1-0 by Stoke City with the Baggies tasting Sky Bet Championship defeat for just the third time this season on a frustrating evening at The Hawthorns.

Slaven Biliu0107’s men were unable to translate dominance in possession into clear-cut goalscoring opportunities with Tyrese Campbell’s early strike enough to claim all three points for the Potters.

The Baggies boss made two changes to his starting XI with Ahmed Hegazi taking the place of Semi Ajayi while Grady Diangana’s return was cut short on four minutes when he pulled up through injury.

The disappointment of Diangana’s departure was compounded further when Stoke took a ninth-minute lead.
