Stoke City v Leicester City: match preview

Stoke City v Leicester City
Stoke City v Leicester City: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Claude Puel’s tenure as Southampton manager ended with a home defeat by Stoke City and now he will attempt to avenge that and extend his positive start with Leicester City. It will be interesting to see whether he changes the lineup that defeated Everton last Sunday. Stoke also go into the game in high spirits and hope to achieve back-to-back league wins for the first time this season. Paul Doyle
