Team News: Hal Robson-Kanu starts for West Bromwich Albion

Robson-Kanu starts for West Brom

Hal Robson-Kanu has been brought into the West Bromwich Albion starting XI for their Premier League clash with Huddersfield Town this afternoon.

The Baggies are winless in their last eight Premier League matches and go into the weekend just two points clear of the relegation zone, but manager Tony Pulis has made just one change from the side that was beaten by Manchester City last weekend.

Robson-Kanu replaces Salomon Rondon in the starting lineup to join Jay Rodriguez up front, but there is still no place in the squad for £15m summer signing Oliver Burke.

Gareth Barry, meanwhile, will come up against a record 46th different club in the Premier League having once again been named in a 3-5-2 formation for the visitors.

Huddersfield, whose last home outing saw them claim a famous victory over Manchester United, make three changes from the side beaten at Liverpool last weekend - including a first Premier League start for Swiss full-back Florent Hadergjonaj.

Scott Malone and Elias Kachunga also come into the side today, with Tommy Smith, Chris Lowe and Danny Williams all dropping to the bench.

Huddersfield Town: Lossl; Malone, Schindler, Zanka, Hadergjonaj; Hogg, Mooy; Van La Parra, Ince, Kachunga; Depoitre Subs: Green, Smith, Cranie, Lowe, Williams, Quander, Mounie

West Bromwich Albion: Foster; McAuley, Hegazi, Evans; Nyom, Livermore, Barry, Krychowiak, Gibbs; Rodriguez, Robson-Kanu Subs: Myhill, Yacob, Rondon, Phillips, Brunt, McClean, Chadli
