Scott Parker’s men made it 11 games unbeaten on Sunday night with a hard-earned 0-0 draw against Middlesbrough to remain third in the Championship table.
They face a Stoke side who are currently managerless having parted ways with Narcis Pelach recently, just three months in the role.
Interim boss Ryan Shawcross took charge of their last game and oversaw an impressive 1-0 win against Sunderland.
The Clarets are expected to have the same pool of players to choose from as they did at the Riverside. With that in mind, here’s how we think the Clarets might line up against the Potters:

10. LW - Luca Koleosho
Hannibal has done well playing out of position on the left but he was a little off his game at Middlesbrough, which could present a chance for Koleosho to reclaim his spot. Photo: Gareth Copley
11. ST - Jay Rodriguez
Zian Flemming could maybe do with a rest after a lacklustre display at Middlesbrough. Lyle Foster is also an alternative, but is he fit match fit to start? Photo: Gareth Copley
