Team News: Saido Berahino absent for West Bromwich Albion

Wantaway striker Saido Berahino is left out again for West Bromwich Albion for tonight's League Cup second-round match with Port Vale.

Wantaway striker Saido Berahino has again been left out of the West Bromwich Albion squad for tonight's League Cup second-round clash against Port Vale.

The Baggies confirmed earlier today that they had rejected a second bid from Tottenham Hotspur for the in-demand striker, and he does not even get a place on the substitutes' bench tonight.

Brown Ideye is instead called up for his first appearance of the season alongside Rickie Lambert up front, while Serge Gnabry and James McClean start in midfield in a strong Albion side.

Meanwhile, Vale boss Rob Page has named an unchanged team after the 3-0 victory over Doncaster Rovers in League One at the weekend.

West Bromwich Albion: Myhill; Chester, McAuley, Olsson; Brunt, Gnabry, Yacob, Fletcher, McClean; Lambert, Ideye
Subs: Rose, Dawson, Gardner, McManaman, Sessegnon, Anichebe, Rondon

Port Vale: Alnwick; Purkiss, Dickinson, Duffy, Inniss; Grant, Foley, Andoh, Moore; Dodds, Ikpeazu
Subs: Johnson, Birchall, Streete, Daniel, Brown, Kelly, Leitch-Smith
