Team News

WBA
Stoke
  • Carlos Corberan will hand starts to Semi Ajayi and Jed Wallace after both players appeared from the bench against Rotherham on Tuesday night.
  • Josh Maja's injury is worse than first feared. The striker will miss the next four months with an ankle ligament issue.
  • Interim manager Paul Gallagher will be without Ben Pearson for two games after the midfielder became the first player in the league to cross the ten yellow card suspension threshold.
  • Expect Josh Laurent to play a deeper role in his absence with Bae Jun-Ho likely to return.
  • Winger Mehdi Leris could also make a start with Junior Tchamadeu dropping to the bench.

Prediction

  • West Brom were in total control of the second half against 24th-placed Rotherham in midweek as they cruised to a 2-0 away win at the New York Stadium thanks to goals from wide duo Grady Diangana and Jed Wallace.
  • The Baggies have won three of their last four games at the Hawthorns heading into Sunday's clash.
  • Stoke were on course for a deserved three points against Swansea on Tuesday night before an 89th-minute Harry Darling goal cancelled out Daniel Johnson's penalty.
  • The Potters are slipping into the clutches of the relegation battle after failing to win any of their last seven Championship fixtures.
