Wolverhampton Wanderers' Kevin Doyle will play as a lone striker during this afternoon's Black Country derby against West Bromwich Albion.

Adam Hammill and Matt Jarvis take their place on the wings, while Slyvan Ebanks-Blake is fit enough for a return to the bench.

Midfielders Chris Brunt and Jerome Thomas are likely to act as the main support to the Irish striker.

West Brom: Foster; Reid, Olsson, McAuley, Jones; Brunt, Mulumbu, Scharner, Thomas, Tchoyi; Long.

Wolves: Hennessey; Stearman, Berra, Johnson, Ward; Hammill, Henry, Milijas, Jarvis, O'Hara; Doyle.
