New signing Jake Livermore is given a place on the bench as West Bromwich Albion host Sunderland.

New signing Jake Livermore is given a place on the bench as West Bromwich Albion host Sunderland in the Premier League this afternoon.

Allan Nyom is able to start after FIFA dismissed a complaint by the Cameroonian Football Federation that had threatened his eligibility following the player's refusal to play in the Africa Cup of Nations.

The full-back's inclusion at the expense of Jonas Olsson is the only change from the 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.

Former Black Cats winger James McClean begins the game against his former club on the bench.

George Honeyman - replacing Fabio Borini - is afforded his first Premier League start for Sunderland as David Moyes makes two alterations from the side he last fielded in the league against Stoke City.

The other change comes in defence, where Billy Jones comes in for Donald Love.

Full-back Victor Anichebe takes a place on the bench having been kept out with a hamstring injury since New Year's Eve.

West Bromwich Albion: Foster; Dawson, McAuley, Nyom, Brunt; Yacob, Fletcher; Chadli, Morrison, Phillips; Rondon
Subs: Myhill; Olsson, Robson-Kanu, Livermore, McClean, Leko, Field

Sunderland: Mannone, Jones, Van Aanholt, Djilobodji, O'Shea, Denayer, Rodwell, Larsson, Januzaj, Honeyman, Defoe
Subs: Mika, Love, Anichebe, E Robson, T Robson, Embleton, Borini
