It means West Brom, who moved up to sixth in the Championship at the weekend, are set to involve under-21 strikers Jovan Malcolm and Reyes Cleary.

The Baggies made 11 changes for the first game and they could do so again.

Chesterfield have a selection dilemma of their own with leaders Notts County next up on Saturday.
