Albion marksman Tomer Hemed and defender Bruno have both been passed fit for Saturday's home game against Cardiff.

Boss Chris Hughton today confirmed the availability of the duo for Saturday's clash against the Welshmen at the Amex.

Five-goal Hemed missed the 2-2 draw at Bolton with a slight hamstring injury which forced him off halfway through the previous game at Wolves.

The Israeli centre forward's recovery could mean a return to the bench for Bobby Zamora following his first start for the club for 12 years at Bolton.

Right-back Bruno has shrugged off an ankle injury which prompted his withdrawal in the second half in Lancashire.

The experienced Spaniard scored a spectacular goal in Albion's 1-1 draw with Cardiff at the Amex last season.
