Stoke defender Geoff Cameron is a doubt after hyperextending his knee during last week's victory over Hull City.
Phil Bardsley is another potential absentee, having been given compassionate leave following the death of his grandfather.

Fernando Llorente is in contention to start, having made his comeback from injury as a substitute last weekend.
