Team News

Stoke
Sheff Wed
  • Daniel Johnson, Wouter Burger and Enda Stevens will all return to the squad on Saturday after missing the game against Plymouth through suspension.
  • One further change is expected from Alex Neil with Mehdi Leris pushing for a recall out wide.
  • Liam Palmer and Marvin Johnson should both return to the starting XI for the trip to the bet365 Stadium on Saturday.
  • Danny Röhl will be without right-back Dominic Iorfa after he suffered an injury during the win against Blackburn.

Prediction

  • Stoke conceded late in both halves last time out as they were beaten 2-1 on the road by newly-promoted Plymouth. Alex Neil is starting to face increasing pressure and the Potters have dropped to 20th in the standings following three consecutive league defeats.
  • Sheffield Wednesday claimed a vital three points last weekend after late goals from Josh Windass and Marvin Johnson confirmed a 3-1 home win against Blackburn. Away form remains a concern for the Owls, who have drawn one and lost eight of their nine away league games this season.
