Confirmed West Brom starting XI v Crystal Palace
West Brom have named an unchanged starting XI for the Premier League clash against Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.
Sam Allardyce has decided to stick with the side that struggled to get past Newcastle last week in the bore draw back at home.
Confirmed on Twitter prior to kick-off, the Baggies have stuck with the likes of Matt Phillips, leaving Robert Snodgrass on the bench in the capital.
Big Sam appears to have found the core of his side that will be handed the opportunity to pull off the great escape, and that includes the string on loanees.
Okay Yokuslu has been a breath of fresh air since arriving from Celta Vigo, and his role of keeping the likes of Eberechi Eze quiet could be the key to winning this game.
For Palace, the return of Wilfried Zaha will be instrumental after he finally made the bench in their 4-1 defeat against Spurs last week.
The Ivorian is the main player for the Eagles and played a huge part in the reverse fixture in that humiliating defeat at The Hawthorns.
Every game is now a must-win fixture for the Albion, starting today against a struggling Roy Hodgson side at Selhurst Park.
Palace haven’t won a game at home since the end of January, and that run has extended over a month during the absence of Zaha.
With the gap to 17th place currently sitting at eight points with Newcastle, Brighton and Fulham the teams to catch, a win would be perfect in this scenario.
