Simpson set for Baggies return

West Brom are set to be boosted by the return of striker Jay Simpson for Sunday’s Barclays Premier League trip to Fulham.

Simpson, who is on-loan from Arsenal, missed Albion’s last game against Newcastle with a hamstring strain but he has been responding to treatment. Right-back Gianni Zuiverloon returns to the side after completing a one-match ban.

Albion also have recent signing Juan Carlos Menseguez available after he received international clearance following his arrival from San Lorenzo. Captain Jonathan Greening and central defender Jonas Olsson are still sidelined by knee problems.

Team (from): Carson, Kiely, Zuiverloon, Hoefkens, Donk, Pele, Meite, Robinson, Cech, Koren, Teixeira, Kim, Valero, Brunt, Simpson, Fortune, Bednar, Moore, Mulumbu, Menseguez.
