Albion have dropped a place to 12th in the Premier League after a 1-1 draw for Southampton at south coast rivals Bournemouth.
Scottish international Ryan Fraser gave Bournemouth a first half lead but in-form Charlie Austin equalised after the break.
The point was enough to ease Saints above Albion into 11th on goal difference.
Bournemouth are two points beneath the pair of them, above the other promoted clubs Newcastle and the Seagulls' hosts on Saturday Huddersfield on goal difference.
Only four points divide Southampton from West Brom in 17th.
