West Brom thumped 10-man Chelsea 5-2 at Stamford Bridge to keep alive their faint hopes of Premier League survival.

After a superb display on Saturday afternoon, Matheus Pereira is most definitely in line for his first in-form of the season in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team's TOTW 28.

Perfect Pereira

The Blues struck first when Christian Pulisic tapped home after Marcos Alonso’s free-kick hit the post, but the Baggies bounced back as Matheus Pereira netted twice in first-half stoppage time.

Substitute Callum Robinson slammed a volley into the roof of the net before Mbaye Diagne scored to secure the points for West Brom, although Mason Mount pulled one back for the Blues - before Robinson clipped in a brilliant late fifth.

Thiago Silva was sent off for two bookable offences – with the second yellow card being particularly contentious as he followed through on Okay Yokuslu in the first half.

West Brom's Brazilian magician made an excellent run to equalise for the Baggies on the stroke of half time which turned the game around - he picked up two goals and two assists in the game.

In-Form Matheus Pereira

Despite not being anywhere near the power curve of the current game, a potential in-form Matheus Pereira is still exciting for Baggies fans!

The Brazillian playmaker will have some decent stats, should he receive a TOTW 28 card, with around 84 dribbling and 82 pace.

Pereira's base card already has 85 agility and 88 balance - both key stats for meta attackers in FUT 21, which could be bumped up to into the 90s!
