Roy Hodgson believes West Brom are now safe from relegation after his side fought back from a goal down to defeat Aston Villa 2-1 at The Hawthorns.<\/p>\n

An own goal from Abdoulaye Meite gave Villa an early lead before Peter Odemwingie levelled for the Baggies with his 14th goal of the campaign.<\/span><\/p>\n

Albion midfielder Paul Scharner was sent off after 62 minutes for two bookable offences, but Youssouf Mulumbu netted the winner with six minutes remaining.<\/span><\/p>\n

West Brom, who have now taken 16 points from nine matches under Hodgson, moved above Villa into 11th place in the Premier League after a first success over their West Midlands rivals since 1985.<\/span><\/p>\n

No doubt<\/span><\/h4>\n

When asked on Sky Sports<\/em> if three points mean survival, Hodgson replied: “Oh yes! I don’t think there is any doubt about that.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I really can’t see us going down on 43 points with a good goal difference. I would say, even if it’s not mathematical, as far as I’m concerned it’s as good as done.”
Roy Hodgson on West Brom<\/em> Quotes of the week<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

“I don’t know what the other results were today but I really can’t see us going down on 43 points with a good goal difference. I would say, even if it’s not mathematical, as far as I’m concerned it’s as good as done.”<\/span><\/p>\n

And Hodgson added: “I’m very, very pleased. We started the game without three of our important regular players.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We then lost Gonzalo Jara to injury and we tried to keep in the game, which I thought we did reasonably well and then no sooner had we battled our way to an equaliser, we were down to 10 men.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We had to show a lot of fighting spirit, a lot of determination and also quite a lot of tactical discipline to keep them out and amazingly score a second goal, which was the winner.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
