Squad sheets: West Bromwich Albion v Birmingham City

Both teams come into this game on the back of encouraging displays and results last weekend. Birmingham are unbeaten, building on the ground gained last season, but none of their strikers managed a dozen league goals then, and none of them has scored yet this time, which must be a concern. West Bromwich have recovered well from their 6-0 drubbing at Chelsea on opening day, beating Sunderland and gaining a deserved draw with Spurs last week. That said, they have scored just two goals in their four league games. Graham Dorrans is available again but James Morrison is still suspended.
