The Premier League looks a reasonably tough heat on the Match lines this weekend, but one side who could be getting under-rated are West Brom when they welcome Chelsea to the Hawthorns.

The Baggies have actually beaten Chelsea in three of their last six meetings at the Hawthorns - a 3-0 win back in 2015, and 2-1 and 1-0 wins in 2012. Those were a little way back of course and bear little relevance to Saturday's match, but West Brom kept Manchester City honest enough a few weeks back (losing 3-2 in the end) and have the ability to cause Chelsea problems from set-pieces.

They are likely to set themselves up to weather a storm and that's exactly how Pulis likes to operate, and Jay Rodriguez and Gareth Barry are looking excellent additions to the squad.

Meeting Chelsea directly after an international break is certainly a good time to be playing them, with fewer of the West Brom squad suffering a heavy travel and playing schedule than Chelsea, and the odds of 11/2 are decent on the Baggies in this one.

Elsewhere, Bournemouth welcome Huddersfield in a match that their fans will expect them to win. It's likely to be closer than they might like however, and Huddersfield haven't made life easy for anyone so far this campaign.

The angle here looks to be on a low goals line, as each side may well be fairly cautious in their approaches. Bournemouth have already been involved in six matches yielding a single goal or fewer this season in 14 outings, including four of their last six.

Huddersfield haven't scored away from home since that opening weekend victory at Crystal Palace, drawing blanks at Liverpool, Swansea, Burnley, Crystal Palace and West Ham since then, so they are unlikely to contribute a great deal either.
