BIG-MATCH ANALYST

-

Alan Pardew picked up his first Premier League win in charge of West Brom, in what was the Baggies’ first win in the competitio­n by more than one goal since March 2017 (3-1 v Arsenal).

The Seagulls have won just one of their last 12 games in the Premier League (D5 L6), failing to score at all in eight of these fixtures.

Chris Hughton hasn’t won any of his five games against Alan Pardew-led sides in the Premier League (D2 L3), managing just one goal across those meetings.

Excluding penalties, Brighton have conceded more goals from set pieces than any other team in the Premier League this season (16).

Each of West Brom’s four goals at the Hawthorns under Alan Pardew have come from set pieces (three from corners and one from the penalty spot).

Jonny Evans netted his second league goal of the season in opening the scoring – only once previously has he scored more in a Premier League campaign (three in 2012/13 for Man Utd).
