Paik Seung-ho withdrew from international duty with South Korea last week due to injury and Bright Osayi-Samuel has left Nigeria's camp early after participating in their fixtures with Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau.

Davies will be able to provide updates on the aforementioned quintet at his press conference on Thursday afternoon.

Marc Leonard won't play until the New Year as he continues his rehabilitation from Achilles surgery, but Scott Wright is available for Blues after being added to their EFL squad list following Kanya Fujimoto's exit.

Albion have announced right-back Nolan Galves will miss the remainder of the season with a serious knee injury, while key duo Jimmy-Jay Morgan and Callum Styles weren't able to meet up with their international teams due to injuries.

They are hopeful Morgan - who has six goal contributions in eight league games - and Styles will be available for the game against Blues.

“Jimmy-Jay and Callum have not been involved in any international fixtures and returned to the club this week. They both suffered minor knocks before the break," said Albion’s director of medical Tony Strudwick.

“They have each had a period of rest and rehabilitation, and we’re hopeful they will be back in contention for the next match."

Albion will be without winger Mikey Johnston due to an ankle injury that has been ongoing since February.
