Hello and welcome to live coverage of the match between West Ham and West Bromwich Albion.

Free kick for West Ham on the left, about twenty yards up from the area. It'll be hoofed forward to Sakho. He misses it, and it bounces back to Myhill.

Sessegnon aims a pass up the wing, and then Morrison closes down Cresswell as he looks to clear the ball. throw in for West Ham.

West Brom now dwell on the ball, but Rondon is flagged offside. It's a slow start to the game.

Sessegon is crowded out on the left, but eventually gives the throw to West Brom as Cresswell looked set to take.

Good old Tony, playing four central defenders today.

The match gets underway.

Adrian has a chance to keep only his second clean sheet in the league this season. Five minutes before kick off, but I will not shout, "And it's live!" at any point.

I'm predicting a 2-0 win for West Ham, let me know what you think on @lxndrnthrtn.

Don't miss the last few minutes of our live coverage of the game between Spurs and Chelsea.

West Ham are still without the impressive Dimitri Payet, so Manuel Lanzini and Mauro Zarate will be asked to create in his absence. Andy Carroll is back on the bench for West Ham after his first start in months. Carl Jenkinson, after a poor performance against Spurs last week, nevertheless keeps his place in defence.

For West Brom, Saido Berahino is again on the bench as Salomon Rondon keeps his place as the lone striker, supported by Stephane Sessegnon behind him. It's a familiar set up for Tony Pulis now, and one that is hard to beat - indeed, they came from behind to beat Arsenal last weekend.
