Long back for West Brom

West Brom head coach Steve Clarke has recalled Republic of Ireland striker Shane Long for today's home Premier League clash against Tottenham.

Former Ireland star Steven Reid joins him, along with midfielder Claudio Yacob.

West Brom: Foster, Reid, Olsson, McAuley, Popov, Dorrans, Yacob, Morrison, Brunt, Long, Lukaku.

Subs: Myhill, Ridgewell, Rosenberg, Thomas, Jones, Tamas, Fortune.

Tottenham: Lloris, Walker, Dawson, Vertonghen, Assou-Ekotto, Lennon, Dembele, Parker, Bale, Dempsey, Defoe.

Subs: Friedel, Huddlestone, Gallas, Naughton, Sigurdsson, Holtby, Livermore.

Referee: Mark Clattenburg.
