Team News
Stoke
Everton
- Jese made his first start since October in Stoke's 2-0 defeat at home to Manchester City on Monday but is expected to return to the bench here.
- Ryan Shawcross will hope to be fit enough to start this match after only making the bench in Stoke's last two matches. Kevin Wimmer is also a doubt for the home side.
- Mame Biram Diouf, Lee Grant and Stephen Ireland are ruled out for the Potters when they welcome Everton on Saturday.
- Gylfi Sigurdsson is sidelined for up to eight weeks, joining Eliaquim Mangala, Maarten Stekelenburg and James McCarthy on the sidelines for Everton this weekend.
- Theo Walcott picked up a calf injury last weekend and remains a doubt for the away side, though Sam Allardyce will hope to have his January arrival available here.
- Ashley Williams serves the second of a three-match suspension against Stoke, meaning Michael Keane and Phil Jagielka should continue at centre back.
- Leighton Baines made his first appearance since the end of November last weekend and was named the WhoScored Man of the Match. He should continue here.
- Wayne Rooney will hope to move further forward to cover for Sigurdsson's absence, which should pave the way for Idrissa Gueye to return.
- Morgan Schneiderlin and Idrissa Gueye missed the 2-0 win over Brighton last weekend because of illness and they remains doubts for the Toffees.
