Albion grounds maintenance staff worked hard to get this fixture on after heavy rain threatened a postponment, but were given some extra time to prepare the pitch after the referee decided to delay kick off by 45 minutes.
The opening Premier League 2 match of the 2018/19 season was a tightly fought contest, with both defences holding firm in a entertaining goalless draw.
