Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Under 2.5 goals means, quite simply, that there will be a maximum of 2 goals scored in total by West Brom and Stoke during the regulation 90 minutes. It's a bet the statistics below and the odds both favour on this occasion, and an outcome that we've seen before when these sides go head-to-head. Without a strong favourite to win the game, our best bet prediction for this one is under 2.5.
