HARVEY Barnes believes Christmas momentum can fire Albion into a Sky Bet Championship automatic promotion berth.

The skilful winger netted his ninth goal of the campaign as the Baggies brushed aside Rotherham on Saturday to record a fourth successive away victory, extending their unbeaten run to seven games.

And Barnes says the busy festive schedule presents Darren Moore’s men, who currently sit third in the table, with the opportunity to propel themselves up to the top two.

“It’s massive to keep that momentum going in this league,” admitted Barnes.

“You want to pick up as many points as you can and when you get on a good run you need to keep that going.
