Sports Mole previews Stoke City's match with Fulham at the Britannia Stadium.

Stoke City host Fulham as they look to continue their unbeaten spell at the Britannia Stadium.

Manager Tony Pulis has relied on his side's home form to claw them away from the relegation zone.

The Potters have picked up nine points from their five league games at the Britannia Stadium this season and they will be hoping to continue that against Fulham.

Pulis may be forced into at least one change from the side that drew 1-1 with West Ham United on Monday evening, with the injured Andy Wilkinson likely to be replaced by Ryan Shotton.

Fulham manager Martin Jol could be forced into making several changes from the side that lost to Sunderland 3-1 last weekend.

Brede Hangeland will be absent through suspension with Philippe Senderos likely to take the centre-back's place.

Bryan Ruiz was forced off after an hour of last week's game and he could be replaced by Hugo Rodallega.

Ashkan Dejagah may also be introduced for Alexander Kacaniklic.
