Tony Mowbray believes Albion's game against Bolton tomorrow could be won by the team who deals with the opposition's style the best.
Questions were asked if Albion would cope with Bolton's physicality prior to the 0-0 draw back in August with Mowbray hoping his footballing team can again overcome the Trotter's robust approach on Saturday (KO 3pm).
"Every team brings a bit of physicality," the Baggies boss said.
"Hopefully we've got a bit of physicality at the right times and in the right areas of the pitch.
"We will have to defend our box better than we have done over the last few home games in particular.
"We're looking forward to the challenge.
"The signs were there on Monday night that the concentration levels were better than they have been and if we can continue in that vein we'll give ourselves a chance to win a football match.
"I don't think we'll get sucked into playing the same way they do.
"I don't think we've got the players to play that way.
"I've always said there is no right or wrong way to play football.
"Bolton are very effective at what they do.
"They've got enough points to think they're not too far away from safety again this season.
"They ask questions of teams, they are very aware of where the ball is going to drop from potential clearances or flick-ons.
"They keep the ball in danger areas of the pitch and don't mess around too much in their own half.
"They ask questions of the opposition in every game.
"So, we've got to see that off if we can and then play our own game and ask questions of them.
"That's football - it's a test."
