Sports Mole previews Stoke City's third-round FA Cup replay against Crystal Palace at the Britannia Stadium.

Stoke City will be looking to bounce back from their first defeat in 17 games at the Britannia Stadium on Saturday, when they face Crystal Palace in their third-round FA Cup replay this evening.

Tony Pulis has no new injury concerns, but is likely to bring Thomas Sorensen into the side, as the Dane has been Stoke's keeper for cup competitions this season.

Michael Owen could be handed his second start for the Potters after featuring in the original match earlier this month.

Palace are without Kagisho Dikgacio, who has joined up with the South African national side for the Africa Cup of Nations, and Owen Garvan, who has sustained a knee injury.

The winners of tonight's fixture will face a fourth-round home tie against the Premier League champions Manchester City.
