West Brom captain Chris Brunt is nursing a groin injury he picked up with Northern Ireland but could be fit for Monday's Hawthorns clash with Manchester United.
Striker Victor Anichebe is doubtful after spending time at a training camp in America recovering from a hernia problem which has dogged him this season.
Porto loanee Silvestre Varela is definitely out though after undergoing groin surgery, the winger's operation went well but he has yet to resume training.
Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney remains suspended but manager Louis van Gaal's injury problems are easing.
Defenders Jonny Evans (foot) and Paddy McNair (hamstring) and midfielders Jesse Lingard (knee) and Antonio Valencia (hamstring) are the only players remaining on the casualty list.
That means the likes of Ander Herrera, Chris Smalling, Ashley Young, Phil Jones and Michael Carrick could be back in contention, if they can show match-readiness. Midfielder Herrera, who has been out with a rib injury, could play in a protective corset.
Watch West Brom v Manchester United live on Sky Sports 1 from 7pm on Monday.
