West Bromwich Albion head into their final home match of the season on Saturday determined to finish on a high.

The Baggies secured their safety on Tuesday with a 3-0 home victory over Watford, a result made all the more significant given the points deduction hanging over them.

Interim boss James Morrison, who stepped into the role at the end of February, has overseen a superb nine-match unbeaten run.

During that spell, Albion have produced a series of impressive results against promotion-chasing opposition, taking points from Hull, Southampton and Millwall.

Next up are Ipswich, still favourites to go up behind champions Coventry, but West Brom will head into the contest believing they can claim another notable scalp.

How to watch West Brom vs Ipswich

Since taking charge at the end of February, Morrison has done a sensational job, breathing new life into a squad that had endured a dismal spell under Eric Ramsay.

Now nine matches unbeaten, the Baggies head into the midweek clash in fine form against an Ipswich side who, with three games remaining, still have their promotion hopes firmly in their own hands.

Those unable to attend the final home match of the term can follow the action live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Football, with Ultra HD coverage available for viewers with compatible hardware.

The match will also be shown via the Sky Go app and the Sky Sports website for subscribers.

BBC WM, as ever, will provide live coverage of the contest, while Albion’s official channel will offer audio commentary.

Final home match offers chance for West Brom to reset

After the dismal spells under Ryan Mason and Eric Ramsay, the turnaround under Morrison would once have been hard to imagine.

Now, however, the atmosphere around The Hawthorns has reached a level of positivity not seen for several years.

The reality is that whenever West Brom are in the second tier, they should be challenging for promotion. That will again be the aim as the Baggies reset over the summer.

Potentially under Morrison, West Brom will look to rebuild and climb the table once more, after their former midfielder has given them a chance to go again in the Championship.

After such an impressive revival, supporters can expect a terrific atmosphere as the club plays its final home match of the season.
