Baggies optimistic over injured duo

West Brom are hopeful utility man Steven Reid and midfielder Graham Dorrans will resume training by the end of the week after injury setbacks. But head coach Roberto Di Matteo admitted the duo are doubtful for Tuesday's home Barclays Premier League clash with Wigan. Reid has been sidelined with a knee problem while Dorrans missed the weekend defeat at Blackburn with a twisted ankle suffered in training. Di Matteo said: "Graham is getting better. We are expecting him to join us at the end of the week but he is doubtful at the moment [for the Wigan game]. Steven is also doubtful but we also expect him to join us - hopefully by the end of the week "It's a bit different with him, though, as he has been out longer."
