Team news for Saturday afternoon's Premier League clash between West Brom and Manchester City at The Hawthorns.

West Brom may be without midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu when Premier League champions Manchester City visit The Hawthorns on Saturday.

The Congo international picked up a niggle on international duty this week and is rated as "60-40" to be fit for the match by head coach Steve Clarke.

Striker Romelu Lukaku is expected to be available after a minor ankle problem, but Steven Reid and Chris Brunt (both hamstring), Billy Jones (knee) and Boaz Myhill (thumb) are out, while long-term absentee Jerome Thomas is still not quite ready.

Champions Manchester City are without midfielders David Silva and Jack Rodwell for the game.

The pair suffered hamstring injuries representing Spain and England Under-21s respectively during the international break.

Another midfielder, Javi Garcia, remains on the sidelines with a thigh problem and defender Maicon (foot) is also still missing.

West Brom (from): Foster, Daniels, McAuley, Olsson, Tamas, Dawson, Jara Reyes, Popov, Ridgewell, Mulumbu, Yacob, Dorrans, Morrison, El Ghanassy, Gera, Fortune, Odemwingie, Lukaku, Long, Rosenberg.

Man City (from): Hart, Pantilimon, Wright, Richards, Zabaleta, Lescott, Kompany, Nastasic, K Toure, Clichy, Kolarov, Nasri, Milner, Y Toure, Barry, Sinclair, Aguero, Dzeko, Balotelli, Tevez.
