West Brom boss Bryan Robson is confident goalkeeper Russell Hoult will be fit for the visit of Blackburn tomorrow.

Hoult, aged 32, suffered a slight groin problem as West Brom’s recent revival was halted by Saturday’s 4-0 defeat at Middlesbrough.

Midfielder Kieran Richardson will also be available after missing the clash at the Riverside Stadium with a dead leg, with Albion seeking a win against Rovers to move them back out of the bottom three.

Striker Geoff Horsfield could also start after making good progress with the slight knee-ligament injury which meant he was only a substitute at the weekend, while Jonathan Greening will complete a three-game ban.

Team (from): Hoult, Albrechtsen, Gaardsoe, Clement, Robinson, Gera, Scimeca, Wallwork, Chaplow, Campbell, Earnshaw, Richardson, Horsfield, Kanu, Inamoto, Moore, Kuszczak.
