20'
Pereira has a header from 8 yards out that Forster doesn't have to move to comfortably gather.
17'
Pereira plays in Diagne but Bertrand gets back to put it behind for a corner.
16'
Another chance for West Brom with Phillips' cross reaching Furlong at the front post but he gets a poor contact and it goes wide. His dad would have buried it.
15'
Great play from Maitland-Niles exchanging a pass with Diagne on the edge of the box and then slipping a no-look pass to Phillips whose centre is tupped over by Vestergaard.
15'
Lovely turn from Yokuslu in the box but Townsend, who is playing very high up the field, can't control in the box and the ball ricochets off him and behind for a goal kick.
12'
The more replays you look at, the more Diagne seems to be onside. Another VAR howler. Has had a bad weekend the poor thing.
11'
Townsend has a shot from a narrow angle at the other end but Forster puts it behind with his feet.
9'
Lovely turn from Walker-Peters turning Townsend on the touchline then racing to the six-yard boxbut his shot from a tight angle is parried behind by Johnstone.
5'
The decision stands...millimetres in it.

GOAL FOR WEST BROM! Furlong's shot from the edge of the box is headed in by Diagne....but the flag is up for offside. It will be checked.
3'
Bednarek is warned for a foul from behind on Diagne. He might haver been booked for that a little later on.

Southampton get us underway...
17:53
Southampton just about even money favourites, with West Brom and the draw around 5/2. The age old betting quandary, do you take the better team or the team who has to win?
17:44
West Brom switching from the five at the back they started with at Stamford Bridge to a 4-4-2 with Robinson alongside Diagne, with centre back Ajayi dropping out.
17:36
As for Albion, Callum Robinson starts after his two superb goals as a substitute in the remarkable 5-2 win at Chelsea.
17:30
After a wretched run of form which included seven straight Premier League defeats, the Saints have won two of their last three and are unchanged from the side which beat Burnley 3-2.
17:23
After Newcastle's surprise win yesterday, West Brom lie 11 points behind the Magpies with this game in hand, one of only eight games remaining. Needless to say this is a must win if they are to have any hope of survival.
17:14
And these are the Saints who will take the field at the Hawthorns in about 45 minutes' time...
17:13
This is how West Brom are lining up...
