Tommy Elphick is back in the Albion squad after a hernia operation.

The young centre back could even start against Bournemouth tomorrow after a flu virus hit the Seagulls.

Joel Lynch and Tommy Fraser did not train today and are rated very doubtful for the visit of the Cherries.

David Martot is ineligible but is expected to sign a new loan deal later this week, taking him through to the end of the season.

Wes Fogden has been recalled from loan at Dorchester to offer cover as Albion prepare for their first home fixture for more than three weeks.
