The 27-year-old has been battling to be fit after limping out of the Baggies 2-0 defeat at Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Evans has remained with Albion in order to receive treatment on the injury but has not recovered in time.

He could yet make a return for Northern Ireland when they head to Finland for their final qualifier on Sunday.

Michael O'Neill's side need two points from the two games to qualify for next summer's finals tournament.
