Albion look set to be without Adam Hinshelwood again for the New Year's Day match with Bournemouth at the Fitness First Stadium.The central defender was withdrawn from the Boxing Day defeat to Yeovil as a precaution after feeling discomfort in his knee, and also missed yesterday's 2-1 defeat to Carlisle.
Adam Hinshelwood is struggling with a knee injury
Albion boss Dean Wilkins explained, "Hinsh has still got some swelling and hasn't got full movement in his knee, so we're not sure what's happening there."
Alistair John (hamstring) and Dean Bowditch (groin) have returned to Charlton and Ipswich respectively for treatment.Kevin Bond could keep faith with the side that lost 3-2 on Saturday in a spirited display at top-of-the-table Scunthorpe, although striker Sam Vokes is pushing for a starting place after a two goal salvo at Glanford Park.
Bournemouth: (4-4-2, predicted) Moss; Hart, Purches, Gowling, Young; Browning, Anderton, Hollands, Cooper; Fletcher, Hayter. Subs: Howe, Pitman, Vokes, Stewart (GK), Cooke.
Albion: (4-4-2, predicted) Henderson; Mayo, Lynch, Butters, Rents; Robinson, Hammond, El-Abd, Cox; Gatting, Revell. Subs from: Kuipers (GK), Hart, Frutos, Fraser, Elphick, Carpenter, Santos, Loft.
Albion Kit: White shirts, blue shorts, blue socks
