After being demoted by Alan Pardew last week following a disciplinary incident, Jonny Evans will retake the captain's armband and lead West Brom out against Huddersfield on Saturday.

Evans was stripped of the captaincy for the FA Cup loss against Southampton. The move came following an incident during a training camp in Barcelona.

Evans, along with Gareth Barry, Jake Livermore and Boaz Myhill, reportedly stole a taxi in the early hours of the morning after a night out.

The four players have since apologised and both Barry and Evans started the game last week. 

After saying last week that he wanted to make a statement, Alan Pardew has clearly deemed that the players have done their dues, according to 'Sky Sources'.
