Hull will provide an intriguing tactical challenge for Albion today.
The Tigers play with three centre-backs and two flying wing-backs in Ahmed Elmohamady and Robbie Brady.
They have three central midfielders and usually top it off with a front two.
Rob Koren, best known as an attacking midfielder, has been playing in a forward role in place of injured top scorer Sone Aluko recently.
Koren plays off main striker Jay Simpson, making the formation more 3-5-1-1 than 3-5-2.
There is good news for an Albion side who have been susceptible to balls delivered from wide in recent matches.
Giant Tigers defender Abdoulaye Faye has headed in four times this season but is currently out injured.
