West Brom

West Brom captain Jonny Evans is available for the first time this season as Albion prepare to resume their Premier League campaign away at Brighton.

The defender has been nursing a hamstring injury but played in both of Northern Ireland's World Cup qualifying matches this month.

Jonny Evans is available for selection after missing the first three games of the season 

Head coach Tony Pulis will decide whether to include new signings Grzegorz Krychowiak and Kieran Gibbs in his squad. Both players are fit but short of match-sharpness having played little first-team football so far this season at Paris St Germain and Arsenal respectively. Gareth McAuley is back in training after a thigh injury but Saturday's game will come too soon for him, while Hal Robson-Kanu is still suspended.

Provisional squad: Foster, Myhill, Nyom, Evans, Dawson, Yuning, Hegazi, Brunt, M Wilson, K Wilson, Yacob, Morrison, Livermore, Field, McClean, Harper, Chadli, Barry, Rondon, Leko, Rodriguez, Burke, Gibbs, Krychowiak.

Key match stats (supplied by Opta)

This is the first league encounter between these teams since April 1993 in the third tier, a season in which the Baggies were promoted to the second tier of English football.

Their last top-flight meeting was in February 1983, a goalless draw at Brighton’s old Goldstone Ground. The Seagulls have never beaten West Bromwich Albion in the top-flight (D5 L3).

Only one team has lost their first four matches as a Premier League club – Swindon Town, while the only team to fail to score in their first four matches as a Premier League club are Swansea City.

Brighton have failed to score in their opening three Premier League games of the season and have attempted just six shots on target so far.

There have only been three previous occasions of a side not scoring in their opening four games of a Premier League campaign: Swansea in 2011-12, Newcastle in 2005-06 and Sheffield Wednesday in 1993-94 and none of those were relegated that season.

The Premier League record for longest time taken by a team to score a goal in a season is 438 minutes, held by Newcastle United in 2005-06.

Tony Pulis has won seven of his last eight managerial meetings against Brighton (D1), most recently a 3-0 victory in the FA Cup fifth round as Stoke boss in February 2011 when the Seagulls were managed by Gus Poyet.

West Bromwich Albion have scored just seven goals in 12 Premier League games since the start of April.

In Tony Pulis’ reign at the club, West Bromwich Albion have won just three of their 15 Premier League matches against newly-promoted opposition (W3 D7 L5).

Since Tony Pulis took over at WBA on January 1st 2015, the Baggies have scored both a league-high number (44) and proportion (44%) of their goals from either corners or in-direct free kick sitations.

West Brom have played a league-high 26.4% of their passes long in the Premier League so far this season.
