Defender out with ankle problem

West Brom defender Marek Cech faces a spell on the sidelines through injury. Cech, who scored twice against Plymouth last week, suffered an ankle injury in the midweek win over Doncaster. The Slovakian international will miss Saturday's top-of-the-table clash with Middlesbrough and Baggies boss Roberto Di Matteo expects Cech to be sidelined for up to three weeks. "Marek Cech will be out for a little while after twisting his ankle on Tuesday," Di Matteo told the club's official website. "It's a shame because he is playing well and he's a good player, so we'll miss him."
