Grady Diangana axed as two changes made – West Brom predicted XI v Blackburn
Carlos Corberan is expected to make two changes to his West Brom side when they face Blackburn at Ewood Park on 23 October.
The Baggies have now failed to win in any of their last four games, after the 1-1 draw at Oxford on 19 October, as Dane Scarlett headed home at the death.
Grady Diangana and Tom Fellows are both expected to drop out to keep things fresh in the final third, with John Swift and Mikey Johnston to come in.
West Brom need to get back to winning ways
Corberan’s side enjoyed a fantastic start to the campaign but a drop in form has seen them claim just two points in their last four games.
Alex Palmer has impressed regularly as Corberan’s number one despite some criticism for what happened in the Oxford game and a back four of Darnell Furlong, Semi Ajayi, Kyle Bartley and Torbjorn Heggem has been consistent.
West Brom concluded a deal for Juventus left-back Gianluca Frabotta in the summer however the Italian has barely featured and Wednesday is unlikely to be any different.
Uros Racic was a standout performer in their draw against Oxford, registering an assist and his place in the side is under no question whilst Alex Mowatt is expected to retain his place alongside him.
The biggest dilemma for Coreban occurs regarding West Brom’s attack.
Both Diangana and Fellows disappointed again against Oxford, dropping match ratings of 6.2 and 6.1 respectively, according to FotMob.
John Swift was tipped to be included in the starting 11 against Oxford however faith remained with Diangana but it is expected that the change will be made for Blackburn.
Mikey Johnston found himself on the bench again, however another below-average performance from Fellows could open the door for him to reclaim his place in the side, albeit in a perhaps less natural right-wing position.
Karlan Grant scored the Baggies’ only goal of the game and will be rewarded with another start while Josh Maja has been a constant goal threat up front all season and will continue.
