West Bromwich Albion mounted a spirited comeback to defeat promotion favourites Burnley 3-1 in the Championship at the Hawthorns. Northern Ireland international Isaac Price was the architect of the victory, scoring twice in the second half and assisting Harry Whitwell's equaliser.

Burnley initially took the lead through an early own goal from Callum Styles in the eighth minute. However, Whitwell levelled the score on 18 minutes, netting his first league goal for Albion.
