Aaron Connolly leads the Albion attack at Aston Villa today – and three players return to the 18 after injury.
Connolly has been picked for his first away Premier League start despite the exertions of the last two weeks with the Republic of Ireland.
Davy Propper returns to the XI, in place of Steven Alzate, and Leandro Trossard is among the subs.
Shane Duffy is also on the bench after proving his recovery from a calf injury while on international duty.
Villa go with the starting XI which kicked off the 5-1 win at Norwich City last time out. Henri Lansbury replaces Jota on the bench.
Aston Villa: Heaton; Guilbert, Engels, Mings, Targett; McGinn, Nakamba, Hourihane; El Ghazi, Grealish, Wesley. Subs: Steer, Taylor, Konsa, Lansbury, Douglas Luiz, Trezeguet, Davis.
Albion: Ryan; Montoya, Webster, Dunk, Burn; Stephens, Propper; Gross, Mooy; Connolly, Maupay. Subs: Button, Duffy, March, Bissouma, Trossard, Murray, Alzate.
