West Brom vs Spurs : Preview

Last time around, thanks to a James Morrison header in the 74th minute, West Brom came out on top for the first time in their last 9 league meetings with Spurs. 
Going straight into the team news, Mauricio Pochettino has the entire squad to select from except Nacer Chadli and Nabil Bentaleb, who is enjoying a good spell with Algeria in the African Nations Cup. On the other hand, new manager Tony Pulis is missing Boaz Myhill , Youssouf Mulumbu and Jonas Olsson. New signing Callum Mcmanaman is available for selection and is most likely to make his debut for the Baggies.
Spurs, currently sitting on 6th, need those 3 points to pose any threat to the top 4. The Baggies, themselves desperate for points, are just 3 points from safety and sit on the 14th position. 
Spurs will be looking to maintain their good form at the Hawthorns, having lost none of the last 4 Premier League games (W2D2).
Mauricio Pochettino, aware of the fact that his side needs to play 7 games in the next 29 days, knows that nothing less than 3 points will be a good result.

COYS!
