Our away record at Stoke has seemed reasonable in recent years and I'd take a repeat of the narrow win when the dorrans free kick drifted in near the end. As ska'd said the remainder of the transfer window is probably more important than the game on Thursday but a result would be very useful for us fans and the  team. A win would be ideal and would give us the big boost of probably leaving the relegation zone. 


I'm not sure what the team will be. Some of those that played on Sunday and the full game on Tuesday may not be able to start against Stoke. The team will probably be similar to the Chelsea game but some changes in defence would be decent. Berahino may make the bench imo but it's hard to guess atm.
