Nottingham Forest could be without key defender Greg Halford against Albion.

The versatile former Portsmouth player has been hit by an FA misconduct charge.

The charge relates to an incident in the 50th minute of Forest’s 4-1 defeat at Bournemouth on Saturday which was not seen by the match officials but caught on video.

Halford, who scored his team’s goal in that game, has until 6pm on Thursday to respond to the charge.
