Managerless West Brom will host Swansea on Wednesday night for the first game since the sacking of Darren Moore.
Moore was dismissed on Saturday following their 1-1 draw with Ipswich, meaning first-team coach Jimmy Shan will take charge at The Hawthorns.
Oli McBurnie (illness) will miss the trip for Swansea, having also been absent for their defeat to Norwich on Friday night.
Swansea start the game 15th in the Sky Bet Championship table.
West Brom are looking to complete a league double over Swansea City for the first time since the 1946-47 season.
Swansea are winless in their last four league visits to the Hawthorns against West Brom (W0 D2 L2) since a 2-0 win in September 2013.
West Brom are winless in six home league games, the longest current run in the Championship (D4 L2).
Swansea have lost each of their last four away games in league play, their worst run since losing seven in a row from September to December 2017 in the Premier League.
West Brom have lost three of their last five games in all competitions at the Hawthorns, as many as they lost in their first 18 games there this season.
Swansea have won 41% of their league games in which striker Oli McBurnie has started this season (12/29), compared to just 17% when he hasn't (1/6).
David Prutton predicts: 1-0 (7/1)
