West Brom and Stoke City produce a Championship fixture whose results across both venues establish no durable hierarchy. Stoke won 3-1 at The Hawthorns in April 2022, but West Brom answered with one-goal victories at Stoke in 2024 and 2025. A goalless draw at The Hawthorns in February 2026 reinforced the close-margin character, leaving future meetings open to another small swing.

Stats for this game
Matchup West Brom VS Stoke City
Margins matter
Stoke City’s 3-1 away win on 9 April 2022 is the clearest counterpoint to the fixture’s balanced profile. West Brom responded with a 2-1 victory at bet365 Stadium on 24 August 2024, then repeated the one-goal margin there on 30 August 2025 with a 1-0 win. The change in venue did not settle the direction of the contest; each result left room for the other side to answer.
A fixture kept open
The 0-0 meeting at The Hawthorns on 7 February 2026 showed how the score can stay level as well as narrow. Across those results, draws and one-goal outcomes give this Championship pairing a shape defined by limited separation rather than durable control. Neither ground has provided a permanent answer, which keeps every shift in scoreline meaningful. The durable question is whether either team can stretch a small advantage into a clearer margin, or whether close margins keep the balance unresolved.
