Crystal Palace are boosted by the return of Darren Powell and Dougie Freedman for Saturday's home clash against West Brom.

Powell (thigh) and Freedman (hamstring) are back to give Kember a near-full squad to chose from. Tommy Black is out suspended.

Matt Clarke's knee injury gives Cedric Berthelin another chance to impress in the Palace goal.

Kember said: "The players have all done ever so well, yet I think we can actually get better.

"I can't fault any of the players for their effort and determination, especially as in a lot of the games we have finished with a depleted team. There's more to come from us."

West Brom centre-half Joost Volmer is a doubt after suffering back and hip injuries in Tuesday's defeat at Wigan. Macedonia midfielder Artim Sakiri is trying to recover from an ankle injury.

Palace have not won this fixture for seven years.
