Their match against the Bees, who are currently managerless following Dean Smith's move to Aston Villa, has been moved back to 8pm on Monday, December 3.

That cuts short Albion's preparation time for the derby with Smith's new club at The Hawthorns, which has already been moved to 8pm on Friday, December 7, and will be shown live on Sky as well just four days later.

Villa travel to Tony Pulis's Middlesbrough on Saturday, December 1, in the evening kick-off.
