View: Predicted West Brom starting XI v Southampton
West Brom welcome Southampton to The Hawthorns on Monday evening as they look to build on their Premier League form.
The Baggies crushed Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last time out in their 5-2 victory and will look to jump out of the relegation picture soon.
Fulham and Newcastle both failed to win again at the weekend, and the gap is currently eight points to safety; making each clash a must-win.
Sam Johnstone has been phenomenal this season, and he is going to start every single game between now and the end of the campaign, that is all but guaranteed.
The back four will change slightly, with Dara O’Shea dropping out to allow Sam Allardyce to change system from the five-at-the-back; the other four from the Chelsea clash with start.
Okay Yokuslu has been a revelation during this loan spell, and he will anchor the midfield against the Saints on Monday.
That will allow Conor Gallagher to come back in the side alongside Ainsley Maitland-Niles after being ineligible against Chelsea.
Matheus Pereira was a superstar at Stamford Bridge, and he will be critical to any chances we have of Premier League survival – he needs to deliver that consistency.
Another loanee who has made an impact is Mbaye Diagne, and his partnership with the Brazilian to put away any chances will hopefully work again on Monday.
The biggest change will be the reintroduction of Callum Robinson.
The Irish international made it four goals from two games against Chelsea this season, and it is time to prove he can do it against others this week, he has to be rewarded.
Here’s how we expect the Baggies to line up…
