Preview: West Bromwich Albion vs. Reading

West Bromwich Albion and Reading will both be determined to get back on the right track after both sides succumbed to respective defeats last weekend.

Steve Clarke's side were thumped 3-0 by Fulham on Saturday, while Reading stumbled to a 3-1 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

The Baggies will be without Peter Odemwingie after the forward was given his marching orders during his side's defeat at the weekend, meaning that Clarke is likely to adapt his formation to make way for Chelsea loanee Romelu Lukaku.

Meanwhile, Brian McDermott's Reading side is likely to boast the attacking options of Pavel Pogrebnyak, with Jobi McAnuff providing support.
