The Ivory Coast forward has hit five goals in five games, including the strike that sealed the 1-1 draw at Bristol City on Good Friday.

Boss Jose Gomes withdrew the 23-year-old just past the hour on Friday, keeping him fresh to face the Baggies.

Newcastle loan striker Dwight Gayle will look to add to his 23 goals for the campaign when leading the line again, having bagged a brace on Friday.
