Albion’s pre-season friendly with Barnet is set to be rescheduled if England beat Colombia in the World Cup.

Gareth Southgate's England could move the fixture.

The Baggies are due to kick-start their pre-season at The Hive at 3pm this Saturday, July 7.

But that is exactly the same time England would be playing in the World Cup quarter-final, should they progress through their last 16 match with Colombia on Tuesday night.

Barnet are keen to move the game forward if it clashes with the England match, and Albion are open to discuss the possibility.

Both a lunch-time Saturday kick-off and a Friday night kick-off has been mooted, but the two clubs will wait until after England’s game with Colombia before deciding when to reschedule it for.

Tickets for the clash are priced at £10 adults, £5 over 65s and under 21s, and £1 under-17s.
