Good evening and welcome to the live text commentary of Liverpool and West Bromwich Albion.
Here's your team news. Liverpool starting XI: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Enrique, Lucas, Gerrard, Henderson, Suarez, Shelvey, Downing.
Substitutes: Jones, Wisdom, Skrtel, Allen, Borini, Sterling, Coutinho
No Daniel Sturridge tonight. He has failed to recover from a hamstring injury, but new signing Philippe Coutinho could make his debut from the bench.
Liam Ridgewell comes in for the visitors, replacing the suspended Goran Popov.
West Brom are yet to win a game in 2013, whilst Liverpool are on a good run at the moment. Seven clean sheets out of their last nine matches.
Half-time: Liverpool 0-0 West Brom
Liverpool have dominated the first half. Jonjo Shelvey thought he had opened the scoring, but it was ruled out for offside. They are pressing high up the pitch, and are causing the visitors all sorts of problems. On the otherhand, West Brom have yet to register a shot on target yet.
The Baggies are hanging on in there at the minute, and Liverpool are looking strong. It should be an eventful second half.
Full-time: Liverpool 0-2 West Brom
Brilliant away performance from West Brom. Sat back, defended well, soaked up the pressure and stunned Liverpool with two late goals. Ben Foster was outstanding.
Steven Gerrard had a penalty saved by the goalkeeper, who was tremendous throughout, and goals from McAuley and Lukaku ensured it was the Baggies who take all the points.
