West Bromwich Albion are back in action this evening as they take on Newcastle United in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
The Baggies lead the way in the Sky Bet Championship as they look to return to the Premier League this season but after a loss to Wigan at the weekend, they’ll be looking to bounce back as quickly as possible.
The game against the Magpies, then, gives them the chance to do exactly that and it remains to be seen if Slaven Bilic decides to name a strong side or whether he throws in a few kids and fringe players.
In terms of youngsters, the Baggies have already seen success this week with their youth side beating Swansea 1-0 and displaying some fine passing football in the process.
Indeed, the club shared this clip of some nice build-up play on Twitter from the match:

Impressive stuff, let’s see how Baggies fans have reacted to that:
They were going very quickly; why did they slow down near the end?
