No changes for Baggies

Head coach Roberto Di Matteo has pledged to stick by the majority of the West Brom team that were thrashed 6-0 by Chelsea last weekend for the clash with Sunderland. Scott Carson has already been assured of his place in goal despite a shaky display but Jonas Olsson will be hoping to return to the defence after being consigned to the bench at Stamford Bridge. Ishmael Miller (thigh) and Joe Mattock (ankle) have been ruled out for up to a month after picking up injuries in training this week while Reuben Reid has joined Walsall on loan.
