Hello and welcome to LIVE updates of the Premier League meeting between West Brom and Liverpool at the Hawthorns. The Reds are unbeaten in their last six and are hoping to bolster their top four bid with only a second away victory in the league in 2017. The Baggies sit eighth and have won just one of their last six, but that was an impressive 3-1 triumph at home to Arsenal. They represent a real test of Jurgen Klopp's fourth-placed side who cannot afford any slip ups in their pursuit of Champions League football next season. Kick off 1.30pm BST.

59'
A right-wing corner drops at the far post, but it gets caught under Lucas' feet and West Brom survive.
58'
How big a miss will that prove to be? West Brom still very much in this at 1-0 but 2-0 would have been a big-ask.
57'
BIG MISS! Firmino makes a lovely run on to Wijnaldum's pass. He drifts into the right of the area and picks out Milner at the far post, but the full back volleys over the top despite being unmarked.
55'
Origi curls one around his marker and just wide of the far post from the left of the area. Good effort from the Belgian.
54'
West Brom trying to dictate the play which goes against their natural style. Liverpool pressing and forcing errors.
52'
Liverpool causing some problems from their won free kick. Firmino tries to nod it back into the mix but Milner can't get there and the Baggies move it to safety.
51'
Liverpool with a spell of possession. They've already given away a few set pieces in this half which will only encourage their opponents. West Brom looking livelier already.
50'
Robson-Kanu booked for a sly stamp on the heel of Can.

Liverpool nice and tidy on the ball but lacking the injection of pace and threat in the final third. It's otherwise known as Sadio Mane.

40'
Robson-Kanu chases a long ball into the left channel and hauls back Lucas. He wants a free kick for obstruction but the referee gives it the other way.
