Albion have made three changes as they look to end 2011 in style today.

Billy Paynter, Craig Noone and Alan Navarro come into the side at Coventry City in place of Kazenga LuaLua, Will Buckley and Liam Bridcutt.

Navarro's return in place of banned midfielder Liam Bridcutt was expected.

Noone and Paynter take over from the men they replaced from the bench at Reading on Boxing Day.

Jake Forster-Caskey joins development squad colleague Grant Hall on the bench.

Coventry make two changes from the side which beat Bristol City here five days ago, the most predictable seeing Gary Deegan start after hitting the winner in that game as a sub.

Martin Cranie, back from injury, replaces Chris Hussey in defence.

Coventry: Murphy; Christie, Keogh, Wood, Hussey; Deegan, Thomas, Baker, Bell; Jutkiewicz, McSheffrey. Subs: Dunne, Jeffers, Bigirimana, McPake, Hussey.

Albion: Ankergren; El-Abd, Greer, Dunk, Taricco; Navarro, Sparrow, Harley; Noone, Paynter, Mackail-Smith. Subs: Brezovan, Hall, Forster-Caskey, Buckley, LuaLua.
