WATCH: West Brom 3-1 Watford
Saturday 3 December 2016 20:55, UK
West Brom continued their improved form with a 3-1 victory over Watford to climb up to sixth place in the Premier League.
The High Court this week ruled Baggies boss Tony Pulis must pay former club Crystal Palace £3.7m. The 58-year-old must also pay costs and interest on the fine which comes from him walking out on the Eagles in 2014.
An expensive week might have felt even more costly had Watford repeated their win at The Hawthorns in last season's corresponding fixture but first-half strikes from Jonny Evans and Chris Brunt gave West Brom a cushion at the interval.
Christian Kabasele halved the deficit on the hour mark but Watford never really looked like snatching a point, and their cause was hindered further when Roberto Pereyra was sent off with six minutes remaining.
Matt Phillips sealed the points in injury time as West Brom won back-to-back home matches for the first time since March.
