Hart Recalled

Gary Hart will start this afternoon's match with Derby.

The Albion right-back missed the trip to Cardiff on Tuesday through suspension., but returns today in place of Jason Dodd, who is still struggling with a back injury.

Defender Kerry Mayo returns on the bench.

Phil Brown keeps faith with the side that won 2-1 at Stoke in midweek. Middlesbrough striker Danny Graham takes a place on the bench after signing on loan on Thursday.
