Chris Brunt

The Northern Irishman might not have the same pace as he once did, but he has the same fierce dead ball has he always had in his locker.

Brunt was directly involved in both of the Baggies’ two goals when the teams met just under a fortnight ago and his ability to play balls into the box could be very dangerous for the Saints.

Cedric Soares will have a tough job on his hands preventing any crosses coming in but there will just as much danger from corners.
