The Baggies' home clash against Bristol City tomorrow is the start of five games in 14 days between now and January 4 at Swansea.
Corberan admits a "fear" for his players' given the physical and mental demands in that period - one in which shuffling the squad is clearly going to be a necessity. Rotation has been a struggle for the Albion head coach so far this term, with some squad players' impact on the first XI low.
Albion already head into the period weakened with left-back Callum Styles, who was enjoying a good run in the side, out for at least the next two fixtures. Though fellow defender Paddy McNair is back near contention after a return to training before his loan expires.
Corberan reckons a hunt for consistency during this period is tougher to come by than ever.
