Premier League - West Bromwich Albion v Chelsea - Yahoo! Eurosport UK

West Brom ended a run of 13 consecutive defeats (11 of them in the Premier League) in all competitions at the hands of Chelsea when they beat the Blues 1-0 in March 2012.

West Brom have only netted five goals in 12 Premier League games against Chelsea.

West Brom manager Steve Clarke made 421 appearances for Chelsea as a player and was an assistant manager at Stamford Bridge during Jose Mourinho and Avram Grant's reigns.

Frank Lampard has scored six goals in his last nine Premier League games against West Bromwich Albion.

West Brom are the only Premier League team yet to concede a goal in the opening 30 minutes of games this term.

Chelsea have used fewer players than any other Premier League side so far this season (19).

Since 2010, Chelsea have won just three of the 10 Premier League games that they have played in the month of November (D3 L4).

West Brom have averaged fewer crosses per game from open play than any other side in the Premier League this season (13 per game).

Three of the top six scoring defenders in the Premier League since August 2009 currently play for Chelsea – Gary Cahill (13 goals), John Terry (12) and Branislav Ivanovic (11).

Seven of Chelsea's goals this season have come from defenders; a league-high tally.
