Watford v West Bromwich Albion Preview

West Brom stormed back to the top of the Coca Cola Championship midweek with an emphatic victory over Blackpool at Bloomfield Road. But there will be no room for error tomorrow, as the Baggies get set to entertain Watford at the Hawthors. The Hornets are still only 2 points behind the Baggies, although the Midlands side will still have a game in hand over their promotion rivals.

Bristol City, currently level on points with Albion will take on the Baggies Midland rivals Wolves.  But the wrong results could see Bristol, Watford, Hull City or Stoke jump back above Albion in a closely knit top end.

Filipe Teixeira is the only definate casualty, his long term absence is likely to span the remainder of the season.  But there is a chance that defender Martin Albrechtsen will miss out, deliberately rested by Tony Mowbray despite making quick progress from the groin injury which forced him to leave the field of play after just 28 minutes midweek.

For Watford Tommy Smith is fit to play after recovering from his groin injury, and Tamas Priskin could start after returning from a loan spell this week.

John Eustace is likely to feature in the side now that his four game suspension has been completed.
