Huth, Jerome start for Stoke

Tony Pulis has named Robert Huth and Cameron Jerome in the starting lineup of Stoke City's Europa League clash against Valencia.

Potters defender Huth is eligible to start for the Premier League side, despite serving a three-match ban in the domestic league.

Pulis was the subject of criticism when he decided to rest nine first-team players for the trip to the Mestalla.

The likes of Peter Crouch, Matthew Etherington, Glenn Whelan and Ryan Shawcross were left behind, while Lucas Dawson gets a spot on the bench.

Stoke need to overcome a 1-0 deficit in order to progress through the tournament.

Valencia: Guaita; Bruno, Rami, Angel Dealbert, Alba; Topal, Pablo, Parejo, Oliveira; Aduriz, Piatti

Substitutes: Diego Alves, Barragan, Ruiz, Mathieu, Albelda, Feghouli

Stoke City: Sorensen; Huth, Collins, Woodgate, Diao; Delap, Arismendi, Palacios, Jones; Fuller, Jerome

Substitutes: Begovic, Shotton, Pennant, Dawson
