Young Baggies face Wolves in 2019 opener
ALBION Under-23s begin 2019 with a local derby as they host Wolverhampton Wanderers at Aggborough on Monday evening (ko 7pm).
Jamie Smith’s side ended the last calendar year with four points from two December games and have already surpassed last season’s points total following an encouraging first half of the campaign.
Wolves, meanwhile, are sat 3rd in the Premier League 2 Division Two table and had put a seven-match unbeaten run together before the festive break.
Three points for either side could have big implications with the young Baggies looking to close the gap on the top six and Wanderers hoping to leapfrog the leading pack.
