Two English clubs on opposite ends of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between West Bromwich Albion and Manchester United. The clash scheduled for 7:45 a.m. ET will be held at the Hawthorns in England and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on NBC Sports Network.
It's been a lackluster year for Manchester United. The reigning Premier League champs currently find themselves seventh in the Premier League table. A full 12 points have the Red Devils from UEFA Champions League qualification—the same tournament they currently face elimination in no thanks to the wonder-strike from Costa Rican Joel Campbell.
West Bromwich Albion haven't fared any better this season. The Baggies currently sit just one point above the relegation zone. A victory over United could prove to be pivotal in their quest to remain inside the top flight.
Both sides are in desperate need of three points. A draw may not suffice for either to achieve their ultimate goal come May. Will Manchester United get back on track? Will their be any signs of life at the Hawthorns?

Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Any time you pay a player £300,000 per week, you expect to reap dividends. That's exactly the pressure being shouldered by Manchester United's Wayne Rooney. The 28-year-old has made a living all season in the hole directly behind the club's target forward. He'll look to continue making that living on the road today.
West Bromwich Albion's Projected Lineup 4-3-3: Foster; Ridgewell, Olsson, McAuley, Reid; Brunt, Mulumbu, Morrison; Berahino, Thievy, Amalfitano
Manchester United's Projected Lineup 4-2-3-1: Gea; Evra, Vidic, Smalling, Rafael; Carrick, Cleverly; Januzaj, Rooney, Mata; Persie
