The Baggies made several changes for the fourth round tie at the Amex and West Brom boss Darren Moore is likely to do the same again.
West Brom sit fourth in the Championship after a 3-2 defeat at home to Middlesbrough on Saturday. They travel to Stoke this weekend and their main focus for the remainder of the season will be returning to the Premier League.
Jacob Murphy, Stefan Johansen and Jefferson Montero all joined the Baggies on loan in the January transfer window but are ineligible for the match.
