The Baggies sold the last remaining tickets on Friday, and The Hawthorns will be full on Saturday as the Owls have also sold out their 2,737-seat allocation.

Fans are flocking to The Hawthorns thanks to an unbeaten run of eight games and the more traditional kick-off time of 3pm, Saturday.

It will be the second time this month the ground will be full, after both home and away ends sold out for the derby clash with Aston Villa that ended 2-2.

However, there were more home fans at the Boxing Day clash with Wigan Athletic because the Latics only brought 1,105 fans and sent back some tickets, allowing Albion to take over three-quarters of the Smethwick End.

Before this season, the Baggies had only sold out their home end twice since April 2015, once for Astle Day, and once for Regis Day.
