Bristol City West Bromwich Albion

Bristol City midfielder, Korey Smith, who has just returned from a long-term knee injury, will be badessed before visiting West Bromwich Albion.

He did not play against Wigan on Saturday, while Andreas Weimann (at the foot) is almost certainly absent.

West Brom defender Ahmed Hegazi is suspended after his red card in the 2-0 defeat at Millwall on Saturday.

But Craig Dawson has recovered from the disease and should be fit to play.
