Team News: Gareth Barry makes West Bromwich Albion debut

Barry makes West Brom debut

Gareth Barry has been handed his West Bromwich Albion debut for this afternoon's trip to Burnley.

Fresh from his arrival from Everton on Tuesday, Barry takes his place in the centre of midfield at the expense of Claudio Yacob as the Baggies continue their search for a first away win in the league in 2017.

Tony Pulis otherwise keeps the same lineup that saw off Bournemouth last weekend, as Manchester City target Jonny Evans remains unable to play a part with a hamstring injury.

Sean Dyche, meanwhile, has chosen to stick with the winning formula that pulled off a shock 3-2 win against champions Chelsea last Saturday.

Phil Bardsley remains unable to play a part through lack of match fitness following his summer move from Stoke City.

Burnley: Heaton; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Ward; Gudmundsson, Hendrick, Cork, Defour, Brady; Vokes Subs: Pope, Long, Taylor, Arfield, Westwood, Barnes, Walters

West Bromwich Albion: Foster; Nyom, Hegazi, Dawson, Brunt; Barry; Phillips, Field, Livermore, McClean; Rodriguez Subs: Myhill, Robson-Kanu, Chadli, Rondon, Harper, Leko, Wilson
