Sheffield Wednesday ended their losing run by holding West Brom to a 0-0 draw in the Championship at the Hawthorns.
Albion dominated but could not convert their chances as bottom club Wednesday - who have been deducted 12 points and are in administration as they seek a new owner - defended solidly to end a sequence of four straight defeats.
West Brom have failed to score in three of their last five outings and won just one in that time.
Albion dominated the first half as they strived to put their recent poor run behind them but were thwarted by the heroics of goalkeeper Ethan Horvath.
Mikey Johnston's left-footed shot was palmed away by Horvath, then Isaac Price's fierce effort whistled wide.

Alex Mowatt forced Horvath's second save to his left with a low drive from 20 yards after Wednesday struggled to clear their own box.
Josh Maja's far-post header from Johnston's corner was blocked by Horvath's leg as Albion continued to push for the breakthrough.
