It’s a big game for…

Raheem Sterling. After a blistering start to the season, the England international’s form has faltered in recent weeks, mirroring that of his side. He will be hoping to rediscover his early-season performances against the Baggies, the team against whom he made his debut.

Best stat…

Remember when…

Player to watch…

Nacer Chadli. The Belgian has been in scintillating form since leaving Tottenham in the summer and is clearly relishing being a big fish in a smaller pond. His improved performances have also resulted in a return to the national team.
