West Brom made it five wins from their last six matches in the Championship with a 1-0 victory over the Cardiff City Stadium against Erol Bulut’s Bluebirds on
Tuesday night, with Brighton & Hove Albion loanee Jeremy Sarmiento providing the only moment of quality in the contest, curling in a sensational
long-range effort.After the impressive 2-0 win at home to high-flying Ipswich Town, Carlos Corberan was brave in altering his XI for the
trip to South Wales, with Ecuador international Sarmiento and leading goalscorer John Swift replacing Brandon Thomas-Asante and the always-reliable Matt Phillips in the side.As
discussions between two interested parties and the club intensify over the potential change of ownership in the Black Country, the Baggies
are going about their business on the pitch with distinction and currently sit fifth in the second-tier standings, four points ahead of Jon Dahl Tomasson’s Blackburn Rovers in
seventh.Tuesday night’s shutout at Cardiff was Albion’s ninth in 18 Championship matches, and plenty of credit needs to be given by

goalkeeper Alex Palmer and centre-back Cedric Kipre, who have both worked their way into Corberan’s preferred XI and are now some of
the first names on the teamsheet.The Baggies are unbeaten in their last six matches at The Hawthorns – conceding just once over that
period – and have collected 20 points from nine home contests, with only Kieran McKenna’s Ipswich, Leeds United and Saturday’s visitors faring better in front of their home faithful.
