Stroke is struggling to adapt to the new boss's tactics as Alex Neil's team saw only one win in six since his arrival. The team fixture has not been kind though with five games out of six played against teams sitting in the first nine places in the table. They will now face the table toppers Sheffield United on Saturday. Stoke is in 20th place in the table and is winless in the last three games which is a cause of major concern. In the last game, they came back against Burnley to draw the game. They will be looking to continue the momentum and try to gain points against shaky Sheffield.
Stoke City’s possible lineup
Bursik; Wilmot, Jagielka, Fox; Fosu-Henry, Smallbone, Thompson, Baker, Clarke; Wright-Phillips, Campbell
Sheffield United’s Form
Sheffield is enjoying a good season in the Championship with the hopes of getting back to the Premier League. They are on top of the table but only on goal difference. The unbeaten streak of ten games was ended by QPR on Tuesday. The blades will be looking to brush that defeat aside and go again to cement their place as the leaders.
Sheffield United’s Predicted lineup
Foderingham; Basham, Egan, Norrington-Davies; Khedra, McAtee, Norwood, Doyle, Bogle; Brewster, Ndiaye
