West Bromwich Albion head out on the road once again this Sunday afternoon as they take on Huddersfield Town in the Sky Bet Championship.
Following the battling 2-2 draw at Queens Park Rangers on Wednesday night, the Baggies will be keen to get back to winning ways to relieve some of the pressure in the play-off fight. A defeat for seventh-placed Norwich City at Middlesbrough has extended the gap to five points but there's still plenty of time for things to change.
Huddersfield are in a similar position to QPR, so another tough test awaits. The Terriers are above the relegation zone merely based on goals scored, with Stoke City on the exact same points and goal difference below them in 22nd. Huddersfield have won two of their last five matches and drew 1-1 with Leeds United last weekend.
Carlos Corberan, facing the team he led to the Championship play-off final two seasons ago, is bound to show plenty of respect for his opposition. West Brom are likely to field as strong a lineup as possible, albeit with several key players out. With that in mind, here's the XI we predict will be named at John Smith's Stadium.

5. LB - Erik Pieters
Pieters, shining through with his experience, has been brilliant for several weeks now. The Dutchman might move to full-back to allow Ajayi in, while Adam Reach will probably be benched. | Getty Images

6. CM - Okay Yokuslu
The Turkey international struggled in the capital but that was probably an anomaly of a performance as he’s been great otherwise. | Wolves via Getty Images

7. CM - Alex Mowatt
Mowatt has been the preferred Yokuslu partner for much of this season and there’s no reason for that to change, especially with Jayson Molumby injured. | Getty Images

8. RM - Tom Fellows
The youngster is maturing the more he plays and deserves to keep up his run of starts. Albion can be grateful to have Fellows on the books. | Getty Images
