Blackburn Rovers are in town - with a very familiar figure in the away dugout.

Albion return to The Hawthorns following the midweek success at Wrexham - with former boss Tony Mowbray looking to spoil the mood.

Two-time ex-manager Mowbray brings his Blackburn Rovers side to the Black Country looking to inflict defeat on the club he was sacked from 18 months ago.

Saturday begins with the Baggies in seventh and Blackburn in 10th, with just two points separating the sides.

Morgan! Was that the chance? His final touch.

The forward heads over from Diakite’s fine cross from the left. So close. Unlucky that time.

Horn Myhre on for Morgan. Phillips on for Campbell.

Felix Horn Myhre and Nat Phillips to emerge.

We’re well into the final10 minutes now and Albion are still on top and pushing. It’s not happening for Morgan in the final third, but Baggies still on front foot. We’ve seen an outstanding cross from the very good Styles and some top defending just then from Campbell. Mepham has also had a very good day.

Styles delivers a good cross and Heggebo is almost able to convert but can’t connect.

Right - about that Morgan chance.

Molumby cross from the right, picks out Morgan, he gets his header badly wrong and it’s flying wide before hitting a defender and almost wrong-footing the keeper, but Toth recovers superbly to turn behind. Some stop.

Oh chance. Morgan should score. What a save Toth for a corner. Awaiting a replay of that one....!Corner being worked... Heggebo heads over.

Isaac Price ‘Panenkas’ in the penalty. How’s that for bottle? Incredible impudence ..... after missing one for Northern Ireland too.

Albion back level at 2-2. Great noise here. Still 20 minutes to go to find a winner.

Chance. Price shoots over from outside the box but the chance was Morgan, who was found in some space and dances around a couple of challenges, leaving some on the deck but tried one dummy too many when he should have pulled the trigger from 15 yards.

Price nicely for Heggebo who looks for Morgan but Heggebo can’t get pass right. Behind for a corner, helped on by Molumby but he can’t get his header right.

The Albion changes were Whitwell for Nzingoula and Heggebo for Stewart.

Big chance Rabby Nzingoula. He’s lashed that wide with his left foot. He should do better. Stewart had headed it on.

Harry Whitwell imminent for Albion.

Three subs on the hour from Tony Mowbray, De Neve, Jorgensen and Garrett all on.

Low ball in from the left almost drops for Price, gets a strike off of sorts, deflects behind. Diakite climbs at back post from corner, nothing doing.

At the other end and Rovers get in down the right again - though it may have been offside - and a low Fevrier cross looks good for Montgomery, but Pereira defends it well for a corner.

Corner worked deep towards the back post and Gudjohnsen - on a hat-trick - heads over, similarly to Morgan in the first period.

Close! Not far away at all from Price, nice strike.

Cross from the right by Pereira almost met by Morgan but drops to Price who sends a nice half-volley only just over the top. Unlucky. Another loose ball had almost fallen for Morgan in the box.

Baggies get away with one. Another Rovers break led by Afolayan. Right-back Alebiosu heads across goal, Campbell misses it and ball cannons off Mepham - who could’ve been in own goal territory again - but the ball dropped into O’Leary’s grateful arms.
