According to the Daily Star, Tony Pulis is on the brink of being sacked by West Bromwich Albion and could have just two more matches to save his job.

The Baggies are struggling this season and are currently in 16th position on the standings and just one point above the relegation zone.

To make matters worse for Pulis, his clubs next two games are difficult encounters against Chelsea and Tottenham.

Chinese owner Gouchan Lai will attend Saturday's game well aware that many fans of the club are unhappy and wish for Pulis to be sacked.

Albion started the season on a good note by claiming several points from their first three games.

However, they have since lost their last three games in succession and have not won a game since August.

In Pulis's defence, the injury problems which the club faces have been rather unfortunate.

The club did face a disappointing loss to newly promoted Huddersfield, which is a game that they were expected to win.
