Stoke City made it three wins in a row as Wilfried Bony struck twice against former club Swansea City at the Bet365 Stadium.
The Ivorian netted the first and third goal of the game, with Alfie Mawson putting the ball through his own net after Wayne Routledge levelled the game for the Swans.
Bob Bradley continues to wait for his first win as Swansea manager, with the Welsh club remaining in the bottom three of the Premier League.
The hosts started on the front foot, and Bony was on hand to put them in the lead just three minutes in, converting Allen’s mishit shot from close range.
