Albion travel to Stoke City's bet365 Stadium on Saturday for a Midlands derby in the Sky Bet Championship (ko 5.30pm).
The opposition
Stoke City are currently in 15th position in the table, and are managed by Nathan Jones, who took over from Gary Rowett in January.
Nathan Jones' side have won just once under his management - and lost four times, including a surprise exit from the FA Cup at the hands of Shrewsbury Town.
Former Albion players Darren Fletcher, James McLean and Saido Berahino are all amongst the ranks at the Potters.
Last time out
Our last meeting was in September as Dwight Gayle scored a double within an hour to propel the Baggies to victory over their Midlands rivals in the league.
A brilliant Erik Pieters shot rocketed into the roof of the Albion net late on to provide Stoke with a consolation goal, but the Baggies held on to see out a 2-1 win.

From the archive
Here are the highlights from Albion's 2-1 win at the Bet365 Stadium in 2012.
James Morrison opened the scoring for the Baggies in the first half, before Cameron Jerome scored a late penalty to level for the Potters with under five minutes to play.
However, at the death Graham Dorrans scored from a low free-kick to win Albion all three points.
Head to head
Stoke come out on top in the head-to-head record.
