No Bolton reunion for Meite

Former Bolton defender Abdoulaye Meite has been ruled out of West Brom’s Premier League match against Gary Megson’s side at the Hawthorns tomorrow, with a hamstring injury.

Fellow centre-back Leon Barnett is facing several weeks on the sidelines with a knee problem, and Baggies boss Tony Mowbray is set to persevere with the new defensive pairing of Jonas Olsson and Shelton Martis.

Megson will be returning to his former club, whom he twice led to promotion from the Coca-Cola Championship, for the first time since his departure four years ago.

Team (from): Carson, Zuiverloon, Olsson, Martis, Robinson, Morrison, Dorrans, Koren, Brunt, Greening, Fortune, Teixeira, Simpson, Moore, Kiely, Hoefkens, Cech, Bednar.
