Jake Livermore is suspended for West Brom's Sky Bet Championship clash with Derby.

The midfielder serves a one-match ban after being sent off for two yellow cards during Saturday's defeat at Wigan. Albion defender Craig Dawson, who came off with a knock at the DW Stadium, is a doubt, along with midfielder Gareth Barry, who has a minor injury issue.

Forward Matt Phillips has not played for a month and could miss out again with a muscle problem, while recent signing Bakary Sako is awaiting his Baggies debut after working on his fitness.

Prutton's prediction

While I have been impressed with Wigan this season I must admit I was a little surprised to see them beat West Brom, and keep them from scoring as well! Only Middlesbrough had done that to Darren Moore's side before Saturday.

Derby got a great win against Sheffield United and they have a massive week to come. After this game they head to Middlesbrough then Chelsea in the Carabao Cup. There should be goals at The Hawthorns and it's tough to call, but I'm going to tip the Rams to edge it.
