Stoke boss Nathan Jones will revert to strongest line-up for Leeds clash
Posted Friday, January 18, 2019 by PA
Stoke boss Nathan Jones will revert back to his strongest line-up for the home game against Leeds.
Jones made eight changes for his first home game in charge of the Potters in midweek when his side were dumped out of the FA Cup by Shrewsbury.
Bojan, who missed out on Tuesday night through illness, could return to contention, while Jones has no new injury concerns.
The likes of Jack Butland, Ryan Shawcross, Joe Allen, Benik Afobe and Saido Berahino are expected to return to the starting line-up.
Leeds manager Marcelo Bielsa has confirmed he will name an unchanged starting XI.
New signing Kiko Casilla will not be involved after the goalkeeper completed his move from Real Madrid on Thursday, meaning Bailey Peacock-Farrell will continue.
Midfielder Izzy Brown (hamstring) is edging closer to his return, but is still not ready for first-team action.
Striker Patrick Bamford (knee), defenders Barry Douglas (muscle strain) and Gaetano Berardi (hamstring), plus winger Stuart Dallas (foot) are still out.
