Wigan defender Chey Dunkley will miss Wednesday nights Sky Bet Championship clash with leaders West Brom through suspension.

Dunkley must serve a one-match ban following his late sending-off for a second bookable offence during Saturday’s 2-1 defeat at Luton.

His absence compounds a defensive nightmare for manager Paul Cook after Charlie Mulgrew suffered a calf injury seconds before Dunkley’s dismissal, with Danny Fox already ruled out until the New Year by a groin problem, leaving Cedric Kipre as the club’s only fit senior centre-back.

Goalkeeper David Marshall is likely to miss out once again after hurting his neck in training last week.

Baggies boss Slaven Bilic may be forced to change his team for the first time in four outings.

Bilic was able to name the same starting line-up for the victories over Bristol City, Preston and Swansea but saw defenders Kieran Gibbs and Kyle Bartley limp out of Sunday’s crushing 5-1 demolition of the Swans.

Gibbs pulled up clutching his hamstring and was taken off 11 minutes into the second half.

Bartley was hurt in a clash of heads with Andre Ayew and both could be doubts.
