West Brom move out of the relegation zone after a close-fought victory over Sheffield United, courtesy of a goal from Conor Gallager.
The on-loan Chelsea man was alone at the edge of the box when Sander Berge cleared Matheus Pereira’s corner to him and he side-footed past the onrushing players into the corner of the net.
Albion had Sam Johnstone to thank for preserving the lead as the ex-Manchester United goalkeeper made a string of saves, the best of which tipping over at full-stretch a header from former Baggie Ollie Burke.
The Baggies came close to extending their lead when Kyle Bartley met Pereira’s corner with a bullet header that Aaron Ramsdale dived smartly low to his right to turn away.
George Baldock had the Blades’best two chances to get on the scoresheet early in each half but spurned them both.
Albion move above Burnley into 17th, while the Blades remain propping up the table with a solitary point.
