West Bromwich Albion expect striking duo Nicolas Anelka and Victor Anichebe to be fit for the game against Manchester United on Saturday.
The pair sat out Wednesday night's Capital One Cup penalties exit to Arsenal with minor injuries.          
Assistant manager Kevin Keen told the club's official website that both forwards are likely to be included for this weekend's trip to Old Trafford.
"Victor’s just got a slight niggle, which meant he couldn’t be involved [against Arsenal]," said Keen.
"But we’re pretty sure he’ll be fine for this weekend - Anelka too, it’s not a big problem.
"Everyone is coming in [to train] today and we’ll have a look and see how everyone is feeling"
Anichebe, who arrived alongside Stephane Sessegnon as the Baggies' big-money summer signing , has made just one start since moving from Everton for around £6m.          
Anelka's appearances have also been limited after the well-travelled Frenchman was allowed time off on compassionate grounds, following the death of his agent Eric Manasse, last month.
Steve Clarke's side head into Saturday's clash on the back of a 3-0 win against Sunderland having registered just one goal in their previous four games.
