Prediction

  • Josh Sargent's 47th-minute goal cancelled out an early Matt Crooks opener last weekend as Norwich left the MKM Stadium with a point following a 1-1 draw against Hull. The Canaries have stalled out in the playoff battle with a three-match winless streak and are now four points off the pace.
  • Stoke reacted perfectly after going behind against Swansea last time out, scoring three times in the final 30 minutes as they romped to a 3-1 home win. After a slow start to life in charge of the Potters, Mark Robins has celebrated two wins in the previous three league games. Saturday's visitors are now six points clear of the relegation zone.
