Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris returns to the starting line-up for the visit to West Brom after a series of errors from Michel Vorm.

The former Swansea shot-stopper most notably allowed the ball to trickle through his fingers in the last minute of Spurs' 2-1 FA Cup fourth-round defeat to Leicester City.

Boss Mauricio Pochettino initially kept the faith, playing him against Sheffield United in the Capital One Cup semi-final second leg, but has now reverted back to his first choice.

The hosts, on the other hand, start with Saido Berahino up front - despite interest from Premier League rivals Liverpool.

Tony Pulis' men are on a run of three games unbeaten, including a 1-0 victory over strugglers Hull, and sit in fourteenth place.

West Brom: Foster, Wisdom, McAuley, Dawson, Lescott, Yacob, Brunt, Morrison, McManaman, Anichebe, Berahino

Sub: Rose, Pocognoli, Baird, Gardner, Dorrans, Sessegnon, Ideye.

Tottenham: Lloris, Walker, Fazio, Vertonghen, Rose; Dembele, Mason; Eriksen, Paulinho, Lamela; Kane

Subs: Vorm, Davies, Dier, Chadli, Stambouli, Townsend, Soldado
