    West Brom head coach Alan Pardew: "There's a lot of pressure on this game. We have to keep the pressure up on the teams above us.

    "Winning on Saturday would create more momentum for us. It's all very tight. All the clubs down the bottom will be looking at our game.

    "We have to try and win the game in Cyrille's (Regis) honour on Saturday."

    Comedian and West Brom fan Frank Skinner is on the pitch at the Hawthorns telling stories about the late Cyrille Regis and what he meant to him.

    Andy Cole, Ian Wright and Dion Dublin are among the ex-players down pitchside too. It could be a very emotional afternoon for Baggies fans.

    "Trust me, Cyrille Regis was one of the great players ever to wear this shirt," Skinner says to a huge ovation.

    Stoke City manager Paul Lambert:"Eddie [Howe] has had good continuity [at Bournemouth], which has helped them, his players know each other inside out, they have a good team spirit and they are a good side collectively.

    "We can only worry about ourselves, and focus on doing what we know we can do. There is no doubt that we can go down there and win the game."

    Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe: "We've been in really good form. Confidence has returned to the group. The manner of the performances against Arsenal and Chelsea was very strong.

    "Stoke have changed their system and mentality slightly and the signs look good for them after their opening two games under [Paul] Lambert."

    Manchester United will mark 60 years since the Munich air disaster at today's game by observing a minute's silence before kick-off.

    Players will also wear black armbands, while fans will receive a commemorative book and pin.

    Before the game, supporters were invited to pay their respects under the Munich plaque at the south-east corner of Old Trafford.

    On 6 February 1958, a plane carrying Manchester United players and staff crashed at Munich airport with the club returning from a European Cup game against Red Star Belgrade.

    Twenty-three people were killed in the disaster, including eight United players and three club officials.

    They beat Liverpool, they create chances and Daniel Sturridge is the kind of player that can put those chances away.

  9. 'Ulloa is key here'published at 14:28 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Brighton v West Ham (15:00 GMT)

    Jonathan Pearce
    BBC Match of the Day commentator

    The return of Leo Ulloa to Brighton could prove one of the best signings of the window.

    Back on loan at the club where he scored 26 goals in 58 games and is hugely popular, he can cure their current scoring blight. Just seven goals and one win in 14 league games is relegation form. This is a must-win game.

    West Ham can't afford to lose either. Injuries have left their squad weak. But under David Moyes their resolve is strong.

    Given their problems, it's strange they sent three players out on loan and sold Andre Ayew. It's also a big step up for Jordan Hugill.

    Ulloa is the key here - but he starts on the bench.

  10. Commentator's notespublished at 14:27 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Bournemouth v Stoke (15:00 GMT)

    John Roder
    Match of the Day commentator

    Bournemouth's magnificent 3-0 victory at Chelsea on Wednesday lifted them up to 10th in the Premier League.

    However, such is the congestion in the bottom half of the table that the Cherries are only five points above the relegation zone.

    Stoke moved out of the bottom three after their goalless draw with Watford, having taken four points from two matches under new manager Paul Lambert.

    Both those fixtures were at home, so this is the first away match for Lambert - and Stoke go into it with the worst away record in the Premier League this season.

    Just the one change for Brighton from the side that started the 1-1 draw at Southampton as Anthony Knockaert comes in for Solly March, who drops to the bench.

    Brighton XI: Ryan, Schelotto, Duffy, Dunk, Bong, Knockaert, Propper, Stephens, Izquierdo, Gross, Murray. Subs: Saltor, Kayal, Baldock, Ulloa, Goldson, March, Krul.

    West Ham name the same side that began the 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace on Tuesday.

    Striker Jordan Hugill, signed in a £10m deal from Preston on Wednesday is among the substitutes, as is Michail Antonio, who was left out of the squad to play Palace because of disciplinary reasons.

    West Ham XI: Adrian, Rice, Collins, Ogbonna, Byram, Zabaleta, Kouyate, Noble, Cresswell, Joao Mario, Hernandez. Subs: Reid, Fonte, Hugill, Haksabanovic, Hart, Antonio, Cullen.

  12. Relegation scrap?published at 14:24 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    West Brom v Southampton

    Martin Fisher
    Match of the Day commentator

    Two of the bottom three go toe-to-toe, each hoping they can produce that moment of magic to earn victory and ease their relegation woes. The form guide offers little hope for either side.

    Under Alan Pardew, West Brom have managed one win in 11 Premier League games. Southampton are winless in 12!

    The signing of Daniel Sturridge should boost Albion's firepower but ex-Saint Jay Rodriguez is their man of the moment.

    You can almost see the headlines now as he fires the winner against his former club. Mind you, Shane Long might have designs on writing that script as well.

  13. Team newspublished at 14:22 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    West Brom v Southampton (15:00 GMT)

    Alan Pardew has handed Daniel Sturridge his first start since his arrival at West Brom on loan from Liverpool. He replaces Jay Rodriguez in one of four changes for the Baggies.

    Chris Brunt, Gareth Barry and Matt Phillips also come in with Sam Field, Grzegorz Krychowiak and James McClean missing out.

    West Brom XI: Foster, Dawson, McAuley, Hegazi, Nyom, Phillips, Yacob, Barry, Brunt, Sturridge, Rondon.

    West Brom XI

    Southampton also hand a full debut to their new striker for this match between two of the Premier League's bottom three.

    Guido Carrillo - a £19m January signing from Monaco - starts for the first time. He replaces Shane Long up front. Sofiane Boufal and Mario Lemina also come in with Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Steven Davis dropping to the bench.

    Southampton XI: McCarthy, Cedric, Stephens, Hoedt, Bertrand, Romeu, Lemina, Ward-Prowse, Boufal, Tadic, Carrillo.

    Swansea manager Carlos Carvalhal: "Leicester are a very strong team and I think it will be the hardest game we have played since I arrived.

    "They have good balance in their team when they are attacking and defending and they have good organisation."

    Having just seen off Liverpool and Arsenal, the Portuguese has tipped Leicester to be his side's hardest game so far...

    Leicester v Swansea (15:00 GMT)

    Claude Puel makes five changes to the Leicester side which lost to Everton as Kelechi Iheanacho, Danny Simpson and Christian Fuchs all return.

    Demarai Gray and Shinji Okazaki are both left on the bench.

    Leicester XI: Schmeichel, Simpson, Iheanacho, Vardy, Albrighton, Silva, Maguire, Dragovic, Ndidi, Fuchs, Diabate

    Swansea name the same starting XI which recorded that terrific victory over Arsenal but there is no room on the bench for new signing Andre Ayew.

    Fellow deadline day signing Andy King is ineligible to face his parent club and therefore is also left out of the squad.

    Swansea XI: Fabianski, Ki Sung-yueng, van der Hoorn, Mawson, Fer, Dyer, Olsson, Clucas, J Ayew, Naughton, Fernandez

    Bournemouth v Stoke (15:00 GMT)

    Eddie Howe called Bournemouth's 3-0 win at Chelsea on Wednesday the club's "best result" in the Premier League, so it is no surprise to see him name a same starting XI and the same substitutes' bench.

    Bournemouth: Begovic, Francis, Steve Cook, Ake, Fraser, Gosling, Lewis Cook, Daniels, Ibe, Stanislas, Callum Wilson. Subs: Boruc, Surman, Pugh, Arter, King, Mousset, Simpson.

    For Stoke, Paul Lambert hands a debut to Senegal midfielder Badou Ndiaye following his £14m move from Galatasaray on transfer deadling day.

    Ndiaye is one of three changes from the side that started the goalless draw against Watford on Wednesday, with Peter Crouch and Geoff Cameron also starting. Charlie Adam and Mame Biram Diouf drop to the bench, but Darren Fletcher is not in the squad.

    Stoke: Butland, Zouma, Shawcross, Cameron, Bauer, Ndiaye, Allen, Pieters, Shaqiri, Crouch, Choupo-Moting. Subs: Johnson, Berahino, Adam, Diouf, Stafylidis, Sobhi, Grant.

  19. Why was Pogba dropped?published at 14:13 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Man Utd v Huddersfield (15:00 GMT)

    More from Jose Mourinho, who was cagey when asked in his pre-match interview why Paul Pogba had been dropped to the bench.

    "I play Scott McTominay. He arrived here aged nine years old and spent many years in the academy, he has been waiting for an opportunity which I give him now and again, today is another one."

    He doesn't give much away, does he.

    Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho: "The game is important for us because we need points to be the first of the last (after Manchester City). We have to try to finish second.

    "We're doing better than last season and it's very important for us to do better than last season. We are trying to win something this season, and if not, we will try to be stronger for next season."
