Joao Pedro and Matt O’Riley are back in training with Albion.

Head coach Fabian Huerzeler said the Brazil forward could come into consideration for some sort of role at Liverpool on Saturday.

There was no indication as to when O’Riley could return but he is ahead of schedule in his recovery.

Albion will also assess Lewis Dunk before the Anfield game and he has not been ruled out.

Huerzeler said: “Matt O’Riley is back in training. We have to see when he will be ready for potential playing in the squad.”

Asked whether Joao Pedro would be involved at Liverpool, Huerzeler said: “We have to see - he is coming back after a long injury – if he will be an option.

“But he is back in training.”

Ferdi Kadioglu went off with a foot injury in the Carabao Cup defeat to the Reds but is expected to be fine for the re-match on Merseyside.
