West Brom vs. Manchester City Live Stream FREE Online: Boxing Day 2014, Projected Lineups and Tactical Preview

Tags:

Two clubs in opposite halves of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between West Bromwich Albion and Manchester City. The first-division clash scheduled for 10 a.m. ET will be held at the Hawthorns in West Bromwich and can be live streamed here free.

What They're Saying

West Brom manager Alan Irvine (via Sky Sports): "It's a really good game for us. It's fantastic to have them coming because obviously they're a really top team."

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini (via the Daily Mail): "We are trusting in what we do, so in the same way maybe we played in poor way two months ago. We are doing very well."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: With a lack of forwards at his disposal, Pellegrini must rely on the creativity of his attacking midfielders. Especially Jesus Navas. In 16 league appearances, the 29-year-old has four assists and an average of 2.1 key passes.

West Bromwich Albion's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Foster; Pocognoli, Lescott, McAuley, Wisdom; Gardner, Mulumbu; Varela, Dorrans, Sessegnon; Ideye

Manchester City's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Hart; Clichy, Mangala, Demichelis, Zabaleta; Fernandinho, Toure; Nasri, Silva, Navas; Milner
