No left-back worries for West Brom

"Hopefully by later in the week the fitness side of things will be looking a lot healthier."

Koren and Carson missed the game against Wigan due to groin and hand injuries respectively.

Elsewhere, Abdoulaye Meite is continuing his recovery from a hamstring injury but James Morrison (heel) and Graham Dorrans (ankle) are less certain to be fit.

"Meite will be training, I’m pretty sure, Morrison won’t be. It’s a ‘wait and see’ scenario with Morrison.

"Maybe the sunshine might help it. It’s got to heal and we’re waiting for skin to grow back and firm up.

"Let’s see what this week brings.

"I would think there are no major issues with Graham Dorrans. He felt his foot and we patched him up and threw him out there the other day.

"He got through an hour and did exceptionally well. I don’t think there is a long-term issue with him. I think he will be fine."
