I'm hoping (especially as i'm going) that the Baggie's curse strikes again... as per the list on the BBC website:

1. Mick McCarthy was sacked as Wolves manager in 2012 after losing 5-1 at home to the Baggies.
   
2. Andre Villas-Boas suffered the same fate at Chelsea after a 1-0 defeat at The Hawthorns in March 2012
   
3. Eight months later, his successor Roberto di Matteo departed after a 2-1 defeat at the same ground in his final league match (his final game in charge was against Juventus in the Champions League).
   
4. Roberto Mancini was sacked by Manchester City despite having just beaten West Brom 1-0 in May 2013.
   
5. Paolo di Canio lost his job at Sunderland after losing 3-0 to the Baggies in September 2013.
   
6. Chris Hughton was sacked by Norwich after losing 1-0 to WBA in April 2014.
   
7. Sir Alex Ferguson's final match in charge of Manchester United before retiring was also against the Baggies - a 5-5 draw in May 2013.
   
8. Craig Shakespeare was given the boot just four months after being made permanent manager following a 1-1 draw in October 2017.
   
   

Two Chelsea managers already - hoping for the hat-trick.
