Another tough championship away day against a Stoke side who have started the season impressively .

Pretty hard to envisage anything other than a comfortable Stoke win right now but we said that against QPR recently and played very well for an hour and this is the championship after all .

Gomes will probably start alongside Palmer in midfield with Styles in at left wing back .

Iseka possibly starting up top with Woodrow and Freiser .

Either way I'm looking for a far better performance and attitude than the Bournemouth debacle last Saturday .

We live in hope .
