Min 0: Villa opens up with a 4-3-3 N while the Baggies will play a 5-4-1 S.
Min 0: Today's referee is Steve Turner (STRONG/STRICT).
Min 3: Madi Monamay hits a short back-pass...
        ...and David Luis (HLR) latches on...
        ...but he can't beat an alert Max Weiss.
Min 11: Peter Withe's (HLR) goal-bound effort is blocked brilliantly by Vitor Reis (WBB)...
        ...and it loops up and into the hands of Max Weiss.
Min 13: The ball is chipped back to the far post...
        ...where two Villa players are waiting...
        ...Andy Gray (HLR) out jumps John McGinn...
        ...and his looping header drifts over Max Weiss...
        ...and is caught by a fan in the 7th row.
Min 15: Now the ball comes to Arda Guler (WBB)...
        ...David Pejicic has space on the left and Arda Guler tries to play him in...
        ...only for Frank Cowans (HLR) to stick out a boot and just intercept.
Min 26: Ollie Watkins (HLR) hits a sweet half-volley...
        ...into the far corner of the net.  GOAL!...
        ...it's a lead that Matthew White's side deserve - can they add to it before the break?...
        ...score now: HLR 1 - WBB 0
Min 26: Lucas Stassin's (WBB) goal-bound effort is blocked brilliantly by Wayne Homer (HLR)...
        ...and it loops up and into the hands of Martinez.

        ...but Wayne Homer (HLR) brings it to an end with a well-timed tackle on the edge of the box.
Min 33: The Baggies sit back and absorb pressure...
        ...before Ollie Watkins's (HLR) ball into the box is cut out by Zeno Debast (WBB).
Min 42: Sverre Nypan (WBB) and Lucas Stassin break for West Brom...
        ...Lucas Stassin looks to have found space into which to recieve Sverre Nypan's through ball...
        ...but some fantastic defending from Marcus Smith (HLR) sees the danger snuffed out.
Min 45: Alan Macinally on for Matty Cash(DF)...
        ...Alan Macinally will play DF.
Min 45: Vincent Company on for Ollie Watkins(FW)...
        ...Vincent Company will play FW.

        ...Arda Guler looks to have found space into which to recieve David Pejicic's through ball...
        ...but some fantastic defending from Frank Cowans (HLR) sees the danger snuffed out.
Min 55: The Ref pulls Peter Withe (HLR) up for spitting? Surely he can't be serious??
