Albion have won their fight for a three-day gap between next month's Capital One Cup tie at Spurs and the Championship visit to Bournemouth.

The fourth round trip to White Hart Lane takes place on Wednesday October 29 (7.45pm).

The Sky televised visit to Bournemouth, originally scheduled for Friday October 31 (7.45pm), will now be played on Saturday November 1 (5.15pm).

Norwich's home game against Bolton has been switched from the Saturday tea-time to the Friday night TV slot.

Spurs have Premier League matches on a Sunday either side of the tie against Albion, due to their Europa League involvement.

Albion boss Sami Hyypia was keen to ensure his players also have three days rest between the Spurs and Bournemouth games.
