Craig Mackail-Smith could play some part in Albion’s big Capital One Cup night.
But boss Sami Hyypia does not expect him to start at Tottenham tomorrow.
The striker is making good progress from a recent hamstring injury and has joined his colleagues for full training.
Hyypia said: “He was in the team-training and I guess he can be in the squad.
“I don’t think he is ready to start yet but he is available for selection.”
Bruno’s comeback could be put on hold after the right-back suffered what appears to be a minor setback in his recovery from a groin problem.
Hyypia said this afternoon: “He trained yesterday but at the end of training he hurt his groin a little bit. We will have to see.
"We will see how people are and make the decision tomorrow morning."
Sam Baldock is cup-tied but Kazenga LuaLua returns after a one-match ban.
Bruno’s opposite number Kyle Naughton is likely to return for Spurs after an ankle injury.
