West Brom line-up v Bristol City as big changes predicted for crunch play-off clash

After the defeat to Sunderland and the headlines that came from it at both ends of the field - Tony Mowbray has some big choices to make.

The first in goal, his number one. His goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith dropped another clanger on Saturday against Sunderland, the first of two howlers.

He hasn't looked 100 per cent comfortable since taking over the gloves from the departed Alex Palmer.

Calls are getting louder, and although Mowbray said it is 'naïve' to think that changing the goalkeeper will solve everything for Albion, he didn't nail his colours to the mast when it comes to sticking by Wildsmith.

Personally, I think he has seen enough. Playing Wildsmith at Ashton Gate will immediately leave a tense atmosphere among the Baggies and.

Elsewhere, the changes are at the other end of the field, and for me he plays two strikers from the off.

Despite almost putting it off the table in recent weeks, he was firm in saying he may have to play two up top.

Another interesting call could be in midfield. Ousmane Diakite did well coming on at the back against Sunderland, but when Albion need players to pick locks like Alex Mowatt further up the field, could it be beneficial to have Diakite in the middie?

That one is more unlikely.
