Head2Head & Carling Cup Preview - West Brom

Last updated : 26 August 2009 By Deano
Carling Cup Round Two
West Bromwich Albion v Rotherham United
26 August 2009 at 7.45pm
The Millers travel to the Hawthorns tonight expected to be backed by close to 600 supporters as they look to progress to round two of the competition.

After disposing of Derby in round one they are looking for another Championship scalp and a repeat of last seasons run, at this stage they knocked out Wolves on penalties at Don Valley.

Boss Mark Robins will likely be missing Ian Sharps again as he wants the skipper 100% fit for Saturday's game at Macclesfield. Marc Joseph will continue at centre half. Jamie Green is expected to be fit whilst Drewe Broughton is still a few weeks off fitness.

Baggies boss Roberto Di Matteo is without trio Robert Koren, Jerome Thomas and ex-Wednesday midfielder Chris Brunt for the game, although he's expected to shufle his pack anyway.

Reuben Reid is likely to play some part in affairs against his old club.

A reminder that tickets are off sale from Mangham House at 12 noon today but you can still pre -buy from Albions ticket office tonight ahead of kick off.
