Stoke welcome play-off contenders West Bromwich Albion to the Bet 365 tomorrow.

West Brom are flying high, especially away from home so will no doubt be coming filled with confidence looking to take three points as they push for promotion.

Stoke on the other hand have had a relatively good Easter period, which will lead them to be looking to replicate that which they did away at Hull. It does feel Stokes away performances have perhaps been better than the way they have performed at home. With Schumacher mentioning front footed, attacking football in his latest press conference it does look like this is setting up to be one of those games where both teams will be setting up to push forward. How will it play out?

I’d love Stoke to win, and these are the types of games that Stoke can turn up for. But with us being at home, I can only see a West Brom win in this one unfortunately.

I’m going 2-0 West Brom.

Agreed.

Today doesn’t feel as big as game as the others coming up which I think most Stoke fans are writing it off (like me). But if we win today I think we are definitely safe. It’s huge game again!

It’s a free hit today really. We aren’t expected to win and I think we will be looking at the midweek game as a definite chance to pick up three points so maybe that will influence the starting eleven, maybe giving a few a rest to freshen them for midweek.

Anyway, as usual, it’s a complete lottery predicting a Stoke result. Who knows what’ll go down… ?

1-1 draw for me and I’ll be happy with that 👍

Interesting to see Burger benched! Obviously tactical but also potentially saving his legs for the upcoming games which I don’t mind.

Love to see Mmaee get on the scoresheet today!

Really good result in my books. We should have won in all honesty but considering we went two down it’s a fantastic point.

I’d love to see us approach every home game like that. It seems to be that Schueys natural play style (which I’d consider today to be), works well against teams that feel equal or superior. Struggle to play like that against teams that are looking to nick a goal and keep a clean sheet.

Huge game Swansea now, I think one more win will give us all a breather and should bring safety. The sooner we get it the better!

We need more than 3 points given the unpredictability of teams around us I think

Probably right yeah, 4 points I think will do it. But we have more than enough to pick up at least 6 points in the final games. I just really hope we don’t take our foot off the gas against Swansea, we have to go for it.
