Southampton vs West Bromwich Albion History

The first time these teams shared a pitch was back in February 1900. Southampton defeated West Bromwich Albion in the FA Cup quarter-finals, 2-1, on their way to reaching the final, although that culminated in a losing effort versus Bury.

Eight years later the Saints and the Baggies reconvened, once again in the FA Cup, though this time in the Second Round. Once again, Southampton emerged victorious (1-0) and progressed to the latter stages of the competition, but lost out in the semi-finals to eventual champions Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Another two decades passed before Southampton and West Brom would contest a league fixture for the first time, doing so during the 1927/28 season of the Second Division. Only in 1967 did the two sides meet in the First Division, and this would become a regular fixture for much of the 1970s and 80s.

Their clash in the 1976 FA Cup was particularly significant, as it set the Saints on their way to clinching this famous trophy for the first time. Southampton thrashed West Brom, 4-0, in the last-16 before going on to beat Manchester United, 1-0, in front of an estimated 100,000 crowd at Wembley Stadium for the FA Cup final.

In 1992 the First Division was replaced by the Premier League as England's top flight, though Southampton and West Brom didn't clash in the reformatted premier division until the 2002/03 campaign.
