Albion will face Wolves’ 11-goal top scorer at the Amex – after a controversial red card was rescinded.
Bakary Sako has been cleared to face the Seagulls, despite dismissal at home to Watford last Saturday.
Sako was shown a straight red after a brief tussle with Fernando Forestieri which left the Watford man lying on the pitch clutching his face.
Forestieri was widely criticised for his reaction after replays showed Sako had not come close to touching his opponent's face.
