Bournemouth and West Brom will be looking to make a winning start to the Championship season when they meet at the Vitality Stadium in Friday’s opening clash.

Both of these sides are among the pre-season favourites for promotion, with the newly-appointed Scott Parker having guided Fulham to the top flight in his only previous full season at this level.

Bournemouth vs West Brom latest odds

After overseeing a 5-0 EFL Cup win over MK Dons in his competitive debut at the helm, the former England international’s Bournemouth side are available at 13/10 (2.30) with bet365 to kick off the league campaign with a victory.

Relegated from the Premier League last season, West Brom can be backed at 11/5 (3.20) to make a statement of intent by coming out on top on the south coast in their first game.

Just one of the last nine meetings between this duo has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 9/4 (3.25) on them cancelling each other out in this one.

If the pre-season and last weekend’s 5-0 win over MK Dons is anything to go by, the Cherries should enjoy plenty of goalmouth action over the coming campaign.
