WEST BROMWICH, England — West Bromwich Albion continued its improved form with a 3-1 victory over Watford on Saturday to climb up to sixth place in the Premier League.
Jonny Evans jumped highest inside the six-yard box to head his team in front from Chris Brunt's corner after 16 minutes.
Brunt's long-range strike from a free kick struck Juan Zuniga and the ball rolled into the net in the 34th.
Christian Kabasele halved the deficit on the hour mark but Watford didn't look like snatching a point, and saw Roberto Pereyra sent off with six minutes remaining.
Matt Phillips sealed the points in injury time as West Brom won back-to-back home matches for the first time since March. The team has three wins and a draw in its last four league matches.
Watford is 10th, two points behind West Brom.
