West Brom boss Tony Mowbray is hopeful that on-loan defender Sam Sodje will be fit for the crucial league finale against Barnsley on Sunday.The Baggies got into the clash at the Hawthorns needing a win to guarantee a place in the play-offs. Sodje suffered a recurrence of a foot injury during Saturday's 1-0 win over Coventry, but Mowbray believes he should be fit to face Barnsley. Mowbray told the club's official website. "Sam will be fine, he just needs a few days rest. I would suggest he won't train until Thursday or Friday this week but then he'll be fine. He's got a knock and it's very painful for him. However, I'm sure he'll be fit for Sunday."
