Tottenham vs. West Brom Match Preview:
After the 15-day Christmas race virtually followed by daily matches along three rounds, the English Premier League suspended its action for the following ten days, giving way to Cup battles.

However, everything now is coming back to the circle, and the round 21 is already around the corner, so we can certainly sum up the results of the Christmas thriller called "Boxing Day". Absolute winners of the ten-day run became Tottenham and Manchester United who managed to pick up all the points from three outings each. Meanwhile, Southampton turned out to be the most unfortunate team during that period, who weren't be able to earn something at all.

Tottenham: Team News
The very last match-day of Boxing Day brought some disappointment as sole leader Chelsea didn't do well to cope with "The Spurs" to extend their 13-match winning streak. In our prediction on that match we had given some thoughts to placing a bet on Double Chance (1X) of the "White Hart Lane" hosts. Though, not only did Mauricio Pochettino's men not lose that encounter to the fearsome rival, but were successful to load two unreturned goals to "The Blues" whist they had been winning every occasion since 26 September, 2016 at that time - the final score featured Dele Alli twice on it (45, 54 minutes).

West Brom: Team News
After achieving that fascinating victory, "The Lilywhites" at last set at the third spot, as they had been out of the Champions league quartet as long as this ongoing season lasts. By that we pushed aside their nearest pretenders for the trophy: Chelsea - 49, Liverpool - 44, Tottenham - 42, Manchester City - 42, Arsenal - 41...

Now the London Arsenal has to play the role of catch-up, while Tottenham takes a better position than Manchester City due to a better goal difference (+25 against +19)

Tottenham vs. West Brom: Match Preview
According to the season schedule, the 21st Premier league round will be kicked off at "White Hart Lane" where the opposition side to Pochettino's team will be a mid-table occupant of the top-tier division in England - West Bromwich Albion.

It is worth to mention that since January 01, 2015 "The Baggies" have been managed by the former triumphant coach of Stoke City, Welsh specialist Tony Pulis. There've been a lot of striking changes happened at The Hawthorns over his two-year reign so far. At present "The Throstles" do not survive yet to remain in the elite league as it was back in the days, but on the contrary - can worthily be claiming a trip to Europe.

After all, since Tottenham Hotspur's win over the tournament leader, they are determined at quite low odds to win this one according to the bookies' estimation as they host this game in the walls of "White Hart Lane". Nevertheless, let's have a look at how powerful West Brom can be at away and the visits to Arsenal (1:0), Chelsea (1:0), and Liverpool (2:1) may make some difference when selecting an outcome for this match. Only narrows wins came for top teams against Tony Pulis's guys, what is encouraging.
