Wigan Athletic goalkeeper David Marshall (neck) is a doubt and defender Chey Dunkley is serving a one-game ban.

Charlie Mulgrew is struggling with a calf injury and Danny Fox (groin) is out until January, leaving Cedric Kipre as Wigan's only fit senior centre-back.

West Brom boss Slaven Bilic may have to change his line-up after naming the same team for three consecutive wins.

Gibbs has a hamstring niggle and Bartley clashed heads with Andre Ayew.

Match facts

    Wigan have won three of their past five home league matches against West Brom (D1 L1). The Baggies won two of their three matches against Wigan last season in all competitions (D0 L1), though both wins came at home - they lost 1-0 at the DW Stadium in a Championship meeting. Wigan are winless in their previous eight Championship games (D2 L6) since beating Nottingham Forest 1-0 in October. West Brom have won their past four away league games, keeping a clean sheet each time. They last won five in a row on the road in April 2002, a run in which they also did not concede a single goal. Wigan have dropped a league-high 18 points from winning positions in the Championship this season, failing to win despite opening the scoring in their previous four games (D1 L3). Baggies winger Matheus Pereira has more assists than any other Championship player this season (10). The last West Brom player to assist more than Pereira in a single league season was Graham Dorrans in 2009-10 (21).
