Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion: match preview

Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion
Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Gary Megson has had a busy week as West Brom’s caretaker. He reshuffled the backroom staff and told the assistant, Ben Garner, to stay away, and is now trying to get a tune out of a team with four draws and six defeats from the last 10. Spurs at Wembley would not have been his game of choice either, even if he last featured there as a player with Sheffield Wednesday in 1988. Mark Tallentire
