----------------------------------------
West Bromwich Albion - DWDDDD
Looking at personnel, there is just a single fitness concern for the West Bromwich Albion manager Carlos Corberán to be concerned with from a near full-strength group. Daryl Dike (Achilles tendon surgery) misses out.
We are thinking that The Baggies may well make use of the 3-5-2 formation for this game and select Alex Palmer, Darnell Furlong, Kyle Bartley, Torbjørn Heggem, Tom Fellows, Jayson Molumby, Alex Mowatt, Mikey Johnston, Callum Styles, Josh Maja and Karlan Grant.
West Bromwich Albion will play in this fixture coming off the back of a 2-2 Championship stalemate versus Sheffield United.
In that match, West Bromwich Albion had 58% possession and 11 shots at goal with 4 on target. For West Bromwich Albion, the goalscorers were Torbjørn Heggem (24') and Tom Fellows (62'). Sheffield United got 12 shots on goal with 5 of them on target. Callum O'Hare (35') and Tyrese Campbell (37') scored for Sheffield United.
Over their last six games, Carlos Corberán's West Bromwich Albion have hit the back of the net a total of 6 times, with that being an average number of goals scored per match of 1.
Going into this one, West Bromwich Albion haven't been beaten in the league by Coventry City in their previous 3 matches.
Coventry City - LDDLDW
Coventry City boss Frank Lampard has not got a full squad to pick from. Raphael Borges Rodrigues (muscular problems) and Ben Wilson (Knee injury) are not ready for selection.
There’s a good chance that The Sky Blues seem likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system, choosing Brad Collins, Milan van Ewijk, Bobby Thomas, Joel Latibeaudiere, Jake Bidwell, Josh Eccles, Ben Sheaf, Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, Jack Rudoni, Ephron Mason-Clark and Norman Bassette.
Coventry City will come into the match following on from a 0-1 Championship win to beat Millwall in their last game.
In that game, Coventry City managed 63% possession and 14 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. The scorer for Coventry City was Ephron Mason-Clark (63'). For their opponents, Millwall had 9 attempts at goal with 0 on target.
The numbers tell their own story, and Coventry City have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 10 goals overall. Defensively, Coventry City could really do with shoring things up.
Going into this one, Coventry City haven't beaten West Bromwich Albion when they have played them away from home in the previous 4 matches in the league. Not the best of away records.
West Bromwich Albion possible starting lineup:
Palmer; Furlong, Bartley, Heggem; Fellows, Molumby, Mowatt, Johnston, Styles; Maja, Grant
Coventry City possible starting lineup:
Collins; Van Ewijk, Thomas, Latibeaudiere, Bidwell; Eccles, Sheaf; Sakamoto, Rudoni, Mason-Clark; Bassette

Prediction: West Bromwich Albion 1-0 Coventry City
After a respectable share of the spoils with division-leading Sheffield United, West Brom should be confident of putting Coventry to the sword on Wednesday night. The Sky Blues had to battle extremely hard for success over Millwall, and we feel that Lampard's side will struggle to repeat the trick at The Hawthorns.
