Good evening and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of Liverpool versus West Brom in the Premier League. It's a cold, wet and windy night at Anfield where the Reds will be hoping to grab the victory needed to propel them back into the top four after they were leapfrogged by Burnley on Tuesday. Meanwhile, the visitors haven't even scored under new manager Alan Pardew never mind claimed a win and it is no surprise that the Baggies aren't labelled the favourites tonight.

End of 2nd Half
FT
FULL-TIME
Liverpool miss the opportunity to return the top four as they are held to a frustrating goalless draw by West Brom.
Jurgen Klopp will be fuming Dominic Solanke's goal was ruled out for handball but in truth the Reds didn't create enough chances to win the game.
90'
The decision to add only three additional minutes is jeered by the Liverpool supporters. But is there time for a late, late goal?
88'
Liverpool are struggling to create an opening at the moment. Foster collects Coutinho's deflected shot and the West Brom goalkeeper will take his time to release the ball.
87'
We are heading for a goalless draw. As it stands, Liverpool will remain fifth, level on goal difference with Spurs. A point is enough to take West Brom out of the relegation zone.
85'
Can he make a difference on a landmark night?
84'
OFF THE LINE!
A long ball sails over the head of Nyom and it falls for Oxlade-Chamberlain but Foster is off his line quickly to deny him. The loose ball falls into the path of Solanke whose shot is blocked on the line!
83'
That is controversial - and good luck to whoever is interviewing Jurgen Klopp post-match.
82'
GOAAALLLLL!
Solanke bundles the ball over the line from Gomez's cross and Liverpool are ahead.
Wait, no! The referee rules it out for handball. But was it intentional?!
79'
Joe Gomez comes on for Alexander-Arnold. It's a final roll of the dice for Klopp.

Pinball inside the visitors box as Liverpool deliver a cross, but the referee spots an infringement and award West Brom a free-kick. It turns out Evans was caught with a high boot.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Dominic Solanke are on for Mane and Wijnaldum.

Not too much happening at Anfield at the moment, though Liverpool are preparing to bring on Solanke.
72'
Remember, West Brom have scored on their last six visits to Anfield - can they spring a surprise here? If I am honest, a goal doesn't look likely at the moment.
70'
Pardew makes his first substitution, with Jay Rodriguez - West Brom's top-scorer with three goals - coming on for Robson-Kanu.

Liverpool are used to winning games by three, four and even seven goals in recent weeks but I bet Klopp would love a scrappy one-nil victory this evening.
67'
Can barges into Robson-Kanu and receives a booking for his troubles. That is the first yellow card issued tonight.

Is it going to be one of those nights for Liverpool?
64'
CLOSE!
Foster's blushes are spared! The West Brom goalkeeper flaps at Mane's cross and then proceeds to drop the ball! However he is fortunate as Evans is able to hack clear.
63'
Indeed Coutinho tries a shot, but it is a comfortable stop for Foster who makes only his second save of the night.
