Hull City head coach Sergej Jakirovic says that striker Oli McBurnie is ready to join the starting XI, but his selection will depend on tactics.
The former Scotland international started nine of the Tigers’ opening 10 Championship games before missing the next eight with a calf injury and has been slowly making his comeback from the bench in the past two games.
However, fellow forward Kyle Joseph has found his form, scoring three goals across those matches to give Jakirovic a selection headache up front.
“He’s [McBurnie] in good shape and everything is good,” Jakirovic told BBC Radio Humberside.
“It’s tactical issues so we will see, we will play with him or with Kyle.”
McBurnie and Joseph have previously started games together and the Bosnian says that the return of forward Enis Destan may increase the chances of seeing the duo both in the starting line-up.
Destan is expected to make the squad for Saturday’s game with West Brom (15:00 GMT) after his return to training following a two-game absence with a leg injury.
“It’s a possibility,” Jakirovic added.
“They can play together, especially now that we have Enis now, so we will see.”
Meanwhile, the head coach “will see” whether midfielder Kasey Palmer is ready to return after missing two months with a knee problem.
