Everything you need to know ahead of the NYE clash
Albion's season continues on the final day of 2016 as they end the year with a trip to the South Coast to face Southampton at St Mary's Stadium.
The opposition
The Saints are currently one point (24) and one place (8) above the Baggies in the Premier League. But that could all change as Claude Puel's men play host to Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday evening. A win against Spurs could lift Southampton up to seventh. An EFL Cup Semi-Final tie with Liverpool also waits on the horizon in January.
Last time out
A James Ward-Prowse double and a Dusan Tadic strike gave Southampton a 3-0 win against the Baggies in January 2016.

Team news
Jonny Evans made his injury comeback against Arsenal on Boxing Day and will be assessed again ahead of the clash on New Year's Eve.
Charlie Austin is the key absentee for the Saints. The former QPR man has a history of scoring against Albion, bagging a hat-trick for Rangers in December 2014.
Stats
Two defeats for Tony Pulis' side in the last two games against Manchester United and Arsenal hasn't prevented Albion from remaining in the upper echelons of the Premier League. The Baggies have occupied a top-ten position since the 2-1 win at Leicester on November 6.
Albion have been more prolific in front of goal, scoring 23 goals to Southampton's 16. But the Saints have conceded less than a goal a game (0.94) compared to a higher ratio for the Baggies (1.22).

Head to head
The head to head record between the two sides is fairly even. In 74 meetings with Southampton the Baggies' record stands at W23, D24, L27.
