Team News

WBA
Sunderland
  • Expect just one change from Carlos Corberan on Sunday afternoon with Taylor Gardner-Hickman pushing for a start in central midfield.
  • Turkish midfielder Okay Yokuslu has an outside chance of featuring for the Baggies.
  • Tony Mowbray will have Dennis Cirkin available on Sunday, but could be without veteran centre-back Danny Batth after he picked up a knock in the closing stages of Tuesday night's game.
  • The Black Cats will be without midfield loanee Edouard Michut for the rest of the season after he suffered a serious back injury.

Prediction

  • West Brom scored early in both halves on Tuesday night as they secured a straightforward 2-0 away win against 23rd-placed Blackpool. The Baggies have moved up to seventh place following back-to-back Championship victories.
  • Sunderland failed to capitalise on the slip-ups of their rivals in midweek as they laboured to a 1-1 draw at home against a relegation-threatened Huddersfield side. Tony Mowbray's men will take confidence from a return of seven points from their last three away league outings ahead of their trip to The Hawthorns.
