West Brom welcome Ipswich Town to The Hawthorns tomorrow evening for what should be an exciting clash in the Championship.
West Brom go up against a very similar Ipswich Town outfit tomorrow, in what promises to be an enthralling battle between two of the Championship’s most regarded tacticians.
Carlos Corberan has worked wonders with a somewhat threadbare West Brom side this season, whilst Kieran McKenna has made title challengers out of an Ipswich side only promoted from League One last time round.
The Baggies currently sit in 7th compared to Ipswich in 2nd, who are level on points with leaders Leicester City.
The latest West Brom team news
On the injury front, it’s good news for Corberan and West Brom ahead of this weekend.
The Spaniard revealed that Josh Maja and John Swift are both available for selection once again, with both having spent several weeks on the sidelines.
There’s also positive news on Grady Diangana; there were fears that he’d sustained an injury whilst on international duty with DR Congo, but Corberan has since given him the all clear.
Martin Kelly has also returned to training this week, but he remains sidelined along with Daryl Dike and Adam Reach.
How will Carlos Corberan line up tomorrow?
With Swift and Maja now back in contention, it gives Corberan two very good options in attack; but given how both have spent a while out, expect them to start on the bench.
And we could expect Diangana to be on the bench tomorrow given his injury scare over the break, possibly along with Semi Ajayi who had some long-haul trips this month.
West Brom didn’t disgrace themselves vs Southampton last time out and so Corberan might fancy an unchanged line up, maybe even with a start for Jeremy Sarmiento should Diangana start on the bench.
Here’s how we expect West Brom to line up vs Ipswich Town at The Hawthorns tomorrow night, with kick off at 5:30pm…
