Albion midfielder Richie Towell has made a breakthrough in his bid to recover from a long-term injury.

The Irishman trained with the first team today for the first time since damaging a knee, which has sidelined him so far this season.

Striker Tomer Hemed (thigh) remains "touch and go", according to manager Chris Hughton, for the visit of Wolves tomorrow night.

 

Solly March (below) is scheduled to play for an hour in the under-23s against Blackburn at Crawley this evening (7pm) on his comeback from a shin problem which has extended his long-term absence caused by knee surgery.

The Argus: March is also set for another run-out in the under-23s at Stoke on Saturday (2pm).
