Albion head coach Graham Potter has given an injury update on defender Dan Burn and Aaron Connolly ahead of their clash with Newcastle on Saturday night (8pm, Sky Sports).
The defender went off at half time in their win over Southampton on Sunday, with a tight hamstring.
Connolly has missed Albion's last two games due to a cracked rib.
However, earlier today he was named in Republic of Ireland’s squad for their upcoming Euro Qualifiers at the end of this month, with the first against Serbia next Wednesday.

But Potter has given an update on the pair ahead of the game at the Amex.
He said: “Dan has responded well and will train tomorrow, which means he should be available for the weekend. Which is good news for us, but there are no fresh injury concerns.
"“Well Aaron is one of a few we have to make a decision on, but he has trained and he is available but we will have to check on that tomorrow.”
