West Brom made it back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time this season with a 3-0 victory over Southampton.
Matheus Pereira, Matt Phillips and Callum Robinson were all on target for Sam Allardyce’s side.
Mbaye Diagne also had an early header ruled offside, with the video assistant referee unable to find a definitive camera angle to overturn the decision.
Southampton captain James Ward-Prowse missed a penalty in stoppage-time.
West Brom stay second-bottom despite the win but are now eight points from safety, while Southampton remain in 14th.
