Carling Cup Opportunities for Wood, Reid?

Both Chris Wood and Winston Reid may get some first team football this week in the 3rd round of the Carling Cup. Both West Brom and West Ham are likely to rest players with one eye on the weekend's Premier League fixtures, with Reid and Wood potential beneficiaries. Wood has only had one Premier League appearance this year for West Brom (as a substitute against Liverpool) but did play and score in the previous round of the Carling Cup. Meanwhile, Reid is now recovered from his hip injury and played a full Reserve team match at Everton late last week.

West Ham play at Sunderland Wednesday morning (NZ time) and West Brom host Man City 24 hours later.
