West Brom vs Crystal Palace
EFL Cup 2018/19
Venue: The Hawthorns
Kick-off: 8pm BST

Crystal Palace are in EFL Cup action tonight as the Eagles head to the Hawthorns to face Championship side West Brom.

Roy Hodgson will likely rotate his options for the trip to the Midlands, while the Baggies - who sit third in Championship - will want to show that their relegation from the Premier League last season is only a brief stay away from the top flight.

The match will not be televised live in the UK.


Head to head

The two sides have met 58 times, with the Baggies winning 24 games, Palace 19, and the teams sharing 15 draws.

Palace got the better of West Brom last season with four points from their League games - a 0-0 draw at the Hawthorns before a 2-0 home win in May.


Team news

Germany midfielder Max Meyer could step into Palace's starting XI against the Baggies.

Former Baggies manager Roy Hodgson will take his Eagles to his old Hawthorns stomping ground looking to rotate his resources after Saturday's goalless Premier League draw with Newcastle.

Hodgson will hope Wilfried Zaha shakes off a minor back strain, though could rest the influential forward in favour of handing game time to the likes of Jason Puncheon or Jairo Riedewald.

Provisional squad: Hennessey, Guaita, Speroni, Wan-Bissaka, Ward, Tomkins, Sakho, Kelly, Van Aanholt, Souare, Townsend, Kouyate, McArthur, Meyer, Milivojevic, Puncheon, Riedewald, Schlupp, Ayew, Kaikai, Sorloth, Zaha.
