- 90'+5'That's all from us today folks, we hope you enjoyed the game!
- 90'+5'This victory moves Tottenham to the top of the Premier League table, temporarily at least. Next up for Spurs is Manchester City after the international break. Meanwhile West Brom sit 18th and they travel to Old Trafford next time out for a game against Manchester United.
- 90'+5'A late Kane header gives Tottenham a 1-0 victory over West Brom and all three points, to make it three wins on the bounce in the league and extend their domestic unbeaten run to seven games. It looked to be ending in a draw, with both teams having plenty of efforts on goal, but they just couldn't seem to make the breakthrough, with Grant and Gallagher both going close for the hosts. For Spurs, Reguilon and Vinicius forced excellent saves from Johnstone, before Kane scored in the 88th minute to clinch the victory.
- 90'+5'FULL-TIME: WEST BROM 0-1 TOTTENHAM
- 90'+4'It hadn't been the best game in front of goal for Kane, having been unable to get on the ball in the final third for much of the match, but he has made the difference and it looks to be enough to hand Spurs all three points.
- 90'+2'Can West Brom mount a late comeback? They have Spurs penned back inside their own half and are throwing players forward in search of an equaliser.
- 90'There will be a minimum of FIVE minutes added time played.
- 90'Third and final West Brom substitution late on, with Livermore replaced by Edwards.
- 88'Doherty picked out Kane perfectly with the cross, it was a deep delivery, which forced Johnstone off his line and the keeper thought he could punch it clear, but Kane got to the ball first and produced a lovely finish.
- 88'GOOOAAALLL! Kane breaks the deadlock for Spurs, it's 1-0! Superb cross from Doherty and an even better finish from Kane to put Tottenham ahead late on. The right-back whips the ball deep into the penalty area and Kane rises above his marker and just flicks it on, over Johnstone and into the far corner of the net.
- 86'Tottenham have conceded just six goals in their last eight Premier League meetings with West Brom, and never more than once in a match in that run.
- 84'West Brom make another substitution now, with Grant coming off the pitch and he has been replaced by Phillips.
- 83'GREAT SAVE! Vinicius is fed the ball on the edge of the penalty area, he turns and drills a low effort towards the bottom left-hand corner of the net and it appears to be sneaking in, but Johnstone gets down quickly and makes a superb save to push it out wide and he then gets up and pounces on the rebound.
- 81'Less than 10 minutes of normal time left to play here, can anyone break the deadlock late on and potentially nick all three points? It's all Tottenham in attack at the moment.
- 78'The other Spurs change sees Sissoko replaced by Vinicius.
- 78'Tottenham make a double substitution, with Bale the first to come off and he has been replaced by Lucas.
- 76'The game is very open now, with chances for both teams and as it is starting to open up, there is more and more space becoming available at the back, inviting the counter-attack.
- 74'Kane with a free-kick from the very edge of the penalty area, but the effort is poor and is easily blocked by West Brom, the rebound falls straight back to the striker, but his second attempt flies well wide of goal.
- 71'HUGE SAVE! Lloris with a superb diving save to deny Grant at the near post after he met Krovinovic's corner into the box and tried to glance it into the far corner of the net. The striker thought he had managed to break the deadlock there.
- 67'Kane picks up a blocked pass deep down the left, he pulls the ball back to Reguilon who raced into the box and his shot at goal is well blocked. However, the rebound falls perfectly to Lo Celso, but he somehow pokes it wide of the Baggies goal from just a few yards out!
- 67'West Brom make their first substitution now, with Robinson the man coming off and he has been replaced by Diangana.
- 66'West Brom just need to get on the ball and slow the pace of the game down, as it's all Tottenham at the moment and the Baggies are having to do a lot of defending.
- 64'Tottenham have been forced into making a substitution, with Ndombele unable to shake off his knock and he has been replaced by Lo Celso.
- 63'Good effort! Spurs go on the counter and Kane lays it out wide to Son down the left, who dribbles inside and then drills a low effort towards goal from a tight angle. However, Johnstone does well and makes a good save.
- 62'Ndombele may have a problem for Spurs here, the midfielder appears to be limping and isn't moving as freely as he would like. One to keep an eye on.
- 60'BLOCKED! O'Shea has been superb so far today and he was once again in the right place at the right time. Kane picked up the ball on the edge of the penalty, with time and space to fire a shot towards goal. However, the West Brom centre-back made himself big and made an excellent block.
- 59'SAVE! Reguilon blasts a powerful effort towards goal and it swerves in the air as it travels towards Johnstone, forcing him to punch it clear and straight back to Spurs. That was a difficult shot to deal with. It is then played back out to Reguilon, who has another go at goal, but this time his effort flies high over the crossbar.
- 57'West Brom have everyone back inside their own half defending at the moment, soaking up the pressure as Tottenham keep the ball well and try to carve open an opportunity.
- 55'Good effort! Bale delivers a deep free-kick into the penalty area and Kane rises above O'Shea and tries to head the ball back across goal, but he is caught off balance and his header goes well wide.
- 54'We have a stoppage in play here as O'Shea is down receiving some treatment after he goes up for a ball with Bale and then lands awkwardly on his ankle. However, it looks like he should be fine to continue.
- 52'This is the second time this season Spurs have managed just one shot in the first half of a Premier League game (also vs Southampton in September).
- 50'Not too far away! Bale dives in at the back post after a lovely cross into the box from the right wing, however, Bale can only get a toe on it and that's not enough to turn it towards goal.
- 48'Blocked! Kane tries to curl the ball towards goal from the edge of the penalty area, however, the hosts get players back and make the block, before the Baggies then clear the danger.
- 45'+1'The game is quite open, with both teams getting into good attacking positions, especially West Brom down the wings, but they need to take their chances or they could be caught out by the Spurs front three.
- 47'CHANCE! The Baggies win back-to-back corners right at the start of the half and the second set piece is delivered straight into the box and met by the head of O'Shea, who tried to glance the ball into the bottom left-hand corner of the net. However, it flies just wide of the Tottenham goal. Really good opportunity.
- 45'+1'It's goalless at the break between West Brom and Tottenham, with both teams having an excellent chance each to open the scoring. Spurs went close first, when Son should've scored after seemingly only having Johnstone to beat, but he took too long on the ball and it allowed Ajayi time to get back and make the block. Grant then tried to beat Lloris with a glancing header, but couldn't quite make the contact needed, before Dier had to clear the ball off the line to deny Robinson a few minutes later.
- 46'The second half is under way!
- 45'+1'HALF-TIME: WEST BROM 0-0 TOTTENHAM
- 45'There will be a minimum of one minute added time played at the end of the first half.
- 44'The first yellow card of the game is shown to Bartley after he slides into the back of Kane, catching him late and getting nowhere near the ball. Poor challenge.
- 43'Tottenham are pressing forward in search of the opening goal, however, apart from the Son chance early on in the half, they haven't been able to break through this resilient Baggies defence.
- 41'There's not long left to play before the end of the first half now, can either side break the deadlock before the half-time whistle?
- 39'Good defending! O'Shea does really well to flick the ball off the toes of Bale after he was played through by Ndomebele, took a touch and then looked to be ready to fire an effort towards goal. However, the Baggies defender was with him all the way and prevented the chance.
- 38'Tottenham lost their last Premier League game against a promoted side, 1-3 vs Sheffield United in July. They’ve not lost consecutive such matches since April 2012, against Norwich and QPR under Harry Redknapp.
- 36'There is a good battle going on between Furlong and Reguilon down the wing at the moment, the two players are constantly going on the attack and getting at each other. More so than Doherty and Townsend on the other flank.
- 34'Not too far away! Patient play by the Baggies down the left wing, they work it well to the edge of the penalty area and the ball comes to Livermore around 20 yards out. The West Brom skipper drills a powerful effort towards goal, but the shot flies well over the Spurs bar.
- 32'We're past the half an hour mark here at the Hawthorns and it remains goalless between West Brom and Tottenham, with the hosts the side currently on the attack and looking more dangerous.
- 30'Decent effort! Bartley meets Krovinovic's deep set piece delivery at the far post, however, his header has too much on it and it flies high over the Spurs crossbar.
- 28'Bale hasn't been involved much for Tottenham so far. The winger has hardly touched the ball as he has been well marked by Townsend on the right-hand side and is having to do a fair bit of defending as the Baggies start to look dangerous in attack themselves.
- 26'OFF THE LINE! Robinson races in behind the Totteham defence down the left wing, gets to the byline and chips it into the box, but it almost ends up in the back of the net, rather than into Grant's path. However, Dier rises high on the line and flicks it on, clearing the ball just in the nick of time.
- 24'West Brom won their last Premier League encounter with Spurs, 1-0 back in May 2018. They’ve not won back-to-back league games against Tottenham since November 1984.
- 22'Kane drops deep to get on the ball and tries to pick out Reguilon down the left wing, who was racing in behind the West Brom defence. However, there is just too much pace on the pass and it heads out of play.
- 20'Stoppage in play here as Ndombele is down on the pitch after a heavy collision with Gallagher. The West Brom man barged into his back as the pass came in from Son. However, it looks like he will be fine to continue.
- 18'CHANCE! Furlong delivers a terrific cross into the penalty area towards Grant who is completely unmarked in the six-yard box and tries to glance the ball into the far corner of the net. However, he can't quite get enough on it and it flies well wide.
- 17'Better from West Brom now, they are getting into the final third and manage to win a corner, but Spurs deal with the danger and prevent any chances.
- 15'Wasted opportunity! Bale with a chance to whip a good ball into the penalty area and create something for his side, but the set-piece delivery is poor and flies straight into the path of Johnstone.
- 13'CHANCE! Tottenham counter quickly and catch West Brom out at the back, with Kane chipping the ball over the top to Ndombele, who passes to Son. The striker takes a couple of touches to prepare himself for the shot and this allows the Baggies time to get players back and Ajayi superbly blocks his effort. Son should've done better there.
- 13'Almost! Gallagher and Grant both have efforts at goal blocked in the Tottenham box after a low cross comes into the box from the left wing, before Spurs eventually clear the danger.
- 10'West Brom are winless in their last eight Premier League games (D3 L5). The Baggies have shipped 18 goals in this run and failed to score in five different games.
- 8'The game is quite scrappy at the moment, with both teams struggling to get the ball on the ground and control it in midfield. No goalscoring chances so far.
- 6'Tottenham win the first corner of the game after a lovely move in midfield and Doherty gets forward down the right wing, but his low cross into the box is well blocked by Townsend and goes out of play. The resulting corner comes to nothing.
- 4'Both teams are just battling for possession at the moment, with Spurs just edging the charts at the moment by keeping it in midfield, but the Baggies are playing a high press and making it very difficult for them.
- 2'Decent effort! West Brom with the first attack of the game after they win a free-kick and Tottenham fail to properly clear the ball away from the final third. It falls to Robinson just inside the box and he fires a low strike towards Lloris, but it is too close to the Spurs keeper and he makes a good save.
- 1'We're under way!
- -The teams are out on the pitch and kick-off is just a few minutes away, stay tuned for all of the match action!
- -Jose Mourinho has made five changes to his team that beat Ludogorets, with Lloris back in goal, replacing Hart, and Davies, Winks, Lucas and Lo Celso also all dropping out. They have been replaced by Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Ndombele and Son.
- -West Brom have made three changes to the side that were beaten by Fulham last weekend, with Branislav Ivanovic and Matheus Pereira missing out after it was confirmed that they have tested positive for COVID-19. They have been replaced in the starting line-up by Bartley and O'Shea. Whilst Diangana also drops out of the side, he's on the bench as Robinson takes his place.

- -West Brom are still looking for their first Premier League victory since their return to the top flight, with just three points on the board so far from three draws and they suffered a 2-0 defeat against Fulham last time out.
