The Baggies have been performing admirably at home, claiming victories in the last four matches whilst only conceding one goal. Much will depend on Brandon Toma-Asante, who has seamlessly stepped into the role of the main man in the attack. Grady Diangana returned to England from the African Cup of Nations.

Aaron Ramsey has returned from injury and has already managed to sub in the match against Preston. Mentioned, there are chances he would feature in the starting eleven, after staying off for four months. Fresh recruits, namely Josh Bowler and Navixh Whitlam, will make the substitute roster. Injury to Mark McGinness's Achilles tendon gives Nyto Phillips the opportunity to continue as the central defender.
