Albion Under-21s will make history on Tuesday night when they compete in the club's first-ever Premier League International Cup game against Danish side FC Nordsjælland (ko 7pm).
The young Baggies were invited to take part in the competition this season, hosting teams from across Europe - with further clashes against Juventus, Valencia and Borussia Monchengladbach to come.
However, an exciting European campaign for Leigh Downing's troops begins against Nordsjælland under the lights on Tuesday, and there's no better place to start than at the club's home stadium.
Full information on how to attend and follow the match can be found at the bottom of the article.
Venue
The Black Country academy hopefuls will host Albion's maiden match in the PL International Cup at The Hawthorns on Tuesday evening.
With a special night in store, motivation will be higher than ever to achieve a positive result against a European side at the club's main arena.
Pre-match thoughts
Last season's Academy Player of the Year Matt Crowther can't contain his excitement for Tuesday evening's mouthwatering European clash, describing it as the sort of occasion the club's youngsters "love" to play in.
The midfielder, who is still only 17-years-old, is currently in his second year competing with a higher age group in the 21s - seamlessly adjusting to the demands of playing against older, more experienced players, but Albion's opening PL International Cup match will be a first for Matty and his young team-mates.
So, understandably, there is a great deal of anticipation and excitement to step out at The Hawthorns under the lights against their Danish counterparts and, should Downing's team prevail on Tuesday, Crowther believes it could be a night which could get the PL2 team's campaign in motion after a tricky start.
"This International Cup has been a breath of fresh air for us because it's given us something to look forward to throughout the season," said Crowther.
"Nordsjælland won't only be physical, but they'll be very good technically too. That sort of style feeds through Europe and I expect Tuesday to be the same so we have to be good out of possession, stay in the game and show our quality.
"I've had to take appreciation this season for the opportunities the coaches have given me once again at a higher age level.
"They've allowed me to express myself and I know I did it last season and for all of this season so far, but it's really benefitted me and I hope occasions like Tuesday can help develop me further.
"Under the lights, against a European team, you can't ask for much more at this level.
"These are the games at U21 level that you love to play in because you're at The Hawthorns, and hopefully there will be supporters there to back us in this competition and, fingers crossed, we can make it a special night on Tuesday."
