West Bromwich Albion Football Club is one of the three clubs that returned to the Premier League this season and the mission of a club like West Brom is to survive and avoid returning to the Championship at the end of this season.
Unlike Leeds United that returned to the Premier League after 16 years, West Brom staged a return to the Premier League after spending two consecutive seasons in the Championship. The club finished as runner up which gave the club automatic promotion back to the elite league.
West Brom started their 2020-2021 Premier League campaign on September 13 against Leicester City. It was a bitter experience for the newly-promoted club as Leicester defeated them 3-0 at their home ground, The Hawthorns.
West Brom picked themselves up on September 16 when they played the second round of the EFL Cup against Harrogate Town. The newly-promoted club won the Championship side 3-0.
The manager of West Brom, Slaven Bilić, and his boys faced another big test on September 19 when they visited Everton for their second Premier League match of the season. The match ended 5-2 in favor of Everton.
On September 22, Brentford stunned West Brom out of the EFL Cup via penalties. Four days later, they hosted Chelsea for their third Premier League match. Chelsea narrowly escaped with a point. The match ended 3-3; the result has pushed West Brom to the 17th spot on the league table.
