Joleon Lescott is struggling to be fit to face his former Manchester City team-mates and Tony Pulis could turn to new signing James Chester. The Albion manager will also be without Serge Gnabry as the Arsenal forward joined on loan after the registration deadline. Manuel Pellegrini is expected to throw Raheem Sterling straight into his starting XI but Fabian Delph could be out for two weeks after his pre-season injury.
