Berahino among West Brom trio in doubt for Aston Villa derby

Saido Berahino is in doubt for West Bromwich Albion's clash with Aston Villa on Tuesday night.

The Baggies make the short trip to Villa Park for the West Midlands derby but may be without leading scorer Berahino who has a foot injury.

It could be a barren strike force for Tony Pulis as Brown Ideye (knee) and Victor Anichebe (groin) are also under injury clouds.

"We're not sure about Brown or Saido. That'll be a late call on Tuesday before we make a decision on those two," said the Albion boss.

"But I don't think Victor will be fit for this game. There're one or two problems. The fact is that we want them fit.

"They've been very good for us over the past month or so and we want to keep it together.

"The team have been successful together and they've been a big part of it."
