Albion were emphatic 6-1 winners in their first match of the competition on Tuesday against John McGinn of Aston Villa.

The French forward will now turn his attentions to Bournemouth’s Philip Billing, who beat Southampton’s Angus Gunn in his first match thanks to goals from Junior Stanislas, Callum Wilson and two by himself.

Key players… 

Albion’s Neal Maupay will be looking for more goals against the Cherries. The striker found the net in the 6-1 win over Aston Villa, while Glenn Murray will no doubt be looking to add to his impressive four-goal haul. 

Philip Billing will provide tougher opposition for the Albion forward, and his convincing win over the Saints last time out suggests we could see a game full of goals.   

How to watch… 

The game will be streamed live on the Sky Sports YouTube channel – fans will be able to follow the action both there and on our social media channels.
