Maja's goal-scoring exploits have been a highlight of West Brom's strong start to the season.

Despite the setback, Corberán's team will look to bounce back, with Maja's continued prolificacy crucial to their promotion push.

West Brom remains among the Championship's top teams, and Maja's goals will be vital in their quest for Premier League return.

The Baggies' next outing against Middlesbrough will test their resolve, as they seek to regain momentum in the highly competitive Championship.
