Ryan Mason makes West Brom Swansea selection call as Albion look to avoid breaking 50 year old away day record
Albion returned to winning ways to end 2025 - now they need to avoid breaking a decades old record on the road to start 2026.
Not since the 1970s have Albion lost nine games away from home on the bounce - but they are in danger of breaking that at Swansea today.
On a ground that hasn't been a happy one for Albion - Ryan Mason needs to find a way to dig in and get a result.
And to do that he has rewarded the side who won against QPR on Monday evening.
It was debated as to whether Albion may recall Jayson Molumby to the side - but Ousmane Diakite remains in the side following a decent run of form.
Elsewhere, Samuel Iling-Junior is preferred to the out of form Isaac Price - with Mikey Johnston again set to start in the role behind the striker.
Albion: Wildsmith, Campbell, Phillips, Taylor, Styles, Diakite, Mowatt, Johnston, Grant, Iling-Junior, Heggebo
Subs: Griffiths, Mepham, Bielik, Molumby, Price, Maja, Dike, Bostock, DuPont
