West Bromwich Albion host promotion-chasing AFC Bournemouth at The Hawthorns on Wednesday night (ko 8pm).

Opposition
AFC Bournemouth are in pole position to secure promotion back to the Premier League having spent the last two years outside England's elite division.
The Cherries have collected 72 points from their 37 matches, sitting comfortably clear of the chasing pack in second with a number of games in hand on those trying to hunt them down.
Former Charlton, Chelsea, Newcastle, West Ham, Spurs, Fulham and England midfielder Scott Parker is the man in charge at the Vitality Stadium having taken over ahead of the start of the 2021/22 Sky Bet Championship campaign.
Wednesday's guests will arrive at The Hawthorns in red-hot form, taking 23 points from the last 30 on offer, winning seven of their last ten matches and losing just once.
They've won two on the bounce and came from behind to beat Bristol City on home soil most recently at the weekend.
Forward Dom Solanke scored against the Robins on Saturday afternoon taking his league tally to 24 goals - a record bettered only by Fulham's Aleksandar Mitrović.
Classic clash
Albion recorded a 2-1 Premier League win over Wednesday's visitors in February 2017.
Josh King put the Cherries ahead early on with a penalty, but strikes from defenders Craig Dawson and Gareth McAuley before the break were enough to earn the Baggies three points.
