West Brom predicted XI vs Swansea

West Bromwich Albion host Swansea Metropolis this afternoon, and Steve Bruce will likely be pretty assured that his aspect can declare what can be simply their second victory of the season.

They’re in determined want of one other win, as they’re presently wallowing down in 21st place.

Thankfully, the Swans are solely two factors forward of them and in equally disappointing kind.

While Bruce has a number of small injuries to deal with, his squad needs to be robust sufficient to suitably bother Russell Martin’s aspect. He would possibly spring a number of surprises due to this, nevertheless.

With that in thoughts, right here’s the aspect we’re anticipating for West Brom this afternoon…

Bruce’s aspect represents simply two adjustments from the aspect that battled to that 1-1 draw with Norwich Metropolis final day out.

David Button once more is unlikely to be displaced, nevertheless, his again 4 may be provoked right into a tactical shift on account of lacking personnel.

Dara O’Shea will proceed on the coronary heart of the defence, however we anticipate the skilled Erik Pieters to slip into centre-back to deal with the absence of Semi Ajayi and Kyle Bartley.

The former suffered fairly a critical harm that has resulted in surgical procedure, while we expect the latter would possibly proceed to be rested after a small hamstring harm.

In midfield, a recall for the “quality” 28-year-old stopper Okay Yoksulu will bench Jake Livermore, who will companion Jayson Molumby.

We additionally suppose the toothless Grady Diangana could also be dropped, with the winger having solely scored once this season. Matt Phillips ought to take his place, with the 24-year-old decreased to having to make his impression from the bench.

Who would you begin up entrance right this moment?

Jed Wallace will take up a place on the opposite flank, with John Swift hoping to offer the driving drive and creativity to take his staff to victory.

Bruce has one thing of a headache up entrance, with the in-form Brandon Thomas-Asante vying for a spot over the tried and examined Karlan Grant.

We anticipate the previous to proceed to begin, as he seems to be so as to add to his two objectives in his opening three Championship video games.

Regardless of the accidents, Bruce has a aspect greater than robust sufficient to compete fiercely for an all-important three factors.
