Mattock ready for Albion return
9:30am Monday 16th April 2012 in Albion By Andy Naylor
Marcos Painter was back at left-back at Upton Park on Saturday
Joe Mattock is back in contention for Albion’s penultimate home game of the season against Watford tomorrow night.
The left-back on loan from West Brom missed last weeks’s Amex defeat against Reading with a testicular infection.
He was not considered for Saturday’s hiding at West Ham after taking part in only one training session. Boss Gus Poyet said: “I think Joe is going to be ready for Tuesday. He trained only once so we kept him out.”
Will Buckley and Sam Vokes, surprise absentees from the 16-man squad at Upton Park, could also feature.
Albion have slipped to eighth, five points outside the play-offs with an inferior goal difference to sixth-placed Cardiff with three games left.
Poyet said: “For us it’s very easy now. We need to win the next three. If we play like Tuesday we’ve got a great chance, if we play like Saturday we’ve got no chance.”
