Albion will start with the team they finished with in midweek as they take on Portsmouth at The Amex today.

Will Buckley, Craig Noone and Sam Vokes – who were all used in a triple substitution by Gus Poyet in the 2-2 draw with Cardiff – come into the starting line-up to face bottom-of-the-table Pompey.

The three men they replaced – Craig Mackail-Smith, Abdul Razak and Gai Assulin – drop out.

Mackail-Smith is named among the substitutes but the two Manchester City loanees miss out altogether.

Also on the bench are Vicente and Kazenga LuaLua.

Portsmouth have made three changes including Jamie Ashdown playing in goal in place of Stephen Henderson. New loan signing Chris Maguire from Derby is on the bench.

Albion: Brezovan; Jara, Greer, El-Abd, Mattock; Bridcutt, Navarro, Barnes; Buckley, Vokes, Noone. Subs: Mackail-Smith, Calderon, Vicente, LuaLua, Ankergren.

Portsmouth: Ashdown; Ben Haim, Rocha, Pearce, Halford; Ward, Thorne, Allan, Norris; Futacs, Varney. Subs: Maguire, Kitson, Mokoena, Webster, Etuhu.

Referee: Mike Dean (Wirral).
