Albion winger Kazenga LuaLua has been ruled out of tomorrow's trip to Portsmouth.
LuaLua has not fully recovered from the hamstring tightness which sidelined him from the Carling Cup win against Gillingham.
Manager Gus Poyet is taking no chances, with another tough away game looming at Cardiff on Wednesday.
Poyet said: "I want to make sure he is fit for Wednesday."
Will Hoskins (hip) is "nearly ready" and has been included in the travelling party.
Poyet has to decide whether to give the former Bristol Rovers striker his full debut or have him on the bench.
