Hull City v West Brom injury news as 12 out and two doubts

West Brom travel to Hull City for their final EFL Championship game before the international break.

The Baggies played to a goalless draw with Burnley on Thursday night, a result which extended their winless run to eight games. It extends a sequence of drawing six straight games, but despite the draw, they moved up two places in to fifth.

Hull in midweek lost 1-0 to Oxford United, and that left them outside of the relegation zone on goal difference. With this the last second tier game before players jet off to represent their countries, they will be hopeful not to avoid any injuries. Here’s the latest injury and team news ahead of kick-off.

West Brom injury news

On-loan Juventus defender Gianluca Frabotta was a doubt going in to the match against Burnley as he hadn't trained. Frabotta wasn't among the substitute's on Thursday, and that puts him as a doubt for the weekend.

The Baggies are still dealing with a defensive crisis with several centre-backs ruled out with medium to long-term injuries. Kyle Bartley has had a procedure to address a knee issue, and he won't be back until the end of November, or the middle of December.

Paddy McNair has a hamstring injury that will put him out until around Christmas, and that's also when his loan is up. Semi Ajayi is out for around for months, and so he won’t be back until February, owing to a serious hamstring problem.

Daryl Dike was due to return following a lengthy lay-off from an Achilles problem he suffered in February. The striker suffered a setback in training, and now won’t be around until the New Year.

Out: Paddy McNair, Daryl Dike, Semi Ajayi, and Kyle Bartley. Doubt: Gianluca Frabotta.

Hull City injury news

The Tigers have likely been hit with a second ACL injury in the space of just a few weeks. Mohamed Belloumi came off injured against Oxford United, and it’s suspected he’s got a serious knee injury that will put him out for the rest of the campaign. Canadian international Liam Millar suffered his ACL injury towards the end of October.

Hull have a series of other injuries to contend with as well. Winter signing Steven Alzate has a calf issue and won't come back until after the international break, with Marvin Mehlem having a similar problem. Goalkeeper Carl Rushworth has an ankle problem, whilst Harvey Cartwright has been forced to undergo elbow surgery, and Thimothee Lo-Tutala has a foot problem.

Oscar Zambrano has been given a 16-month suspension, but he, the club, and Zambrano’s lawyers are working towards appealing the decision. Abu Kamara is a doubt after suffering a knock to his ankle against Portsmouth.

Out: Oscar Zambrano, Carl Rushworth, Harvey Cartwright, Thimothee Lo-Tutala, Mohamed Belloumi, Steven Alzate, Marvin Mehlem, and Liam Millar. Doubt: Abu Kamara.
