Antonio Conte's side arrive in the Potteries knowing that both Arsenal and Manchester United have failed to win at Stoke this season and anticipating a tough game.

During the course of the 90 minutes Conte can look to his bench if needed and has a number of options, including Eden Hazard and Charly Musonda.
