West Brom preview: In a fierce battle for the playoffs
With 56 points from 37 games in the league, West Brom have been able to keep up the pace in the race for the promotion playoffs since they're currently fifth in the standings. They've also been in solid form recently, with five games in a row without a loss, but the job is far from done with a few teams close behind, so West Brom will have to keep their good form going if they want to secure a spot in the playoffs.
Meanwhile, Josh Maja, Semi Ajayi, and Jed Wallace remain out with injuries, while Darnell Furlong is suspended.
Predicted lineup: Wildsmith (GK), Diakite, Bartley, Heggem, Styles, Molumby, Mowatt, Price, Swift, Johnston & Armstrong

Player to watch: Alex Mowatt
With West Brom having to manage without their top scorer Josh Maja, other players had to carry more of the offensive load to keep the team in the race for the playoffs and one of those players has been Mowatt.
The central midfielder has six goals in the league this season and the experienced Englishman will be looking for another good performance when WBA host Hull on Saturday.
