Andy Wilkinson will be hoping to have done enough to keep Robert Huth out of the Stoke side for the trip to Hull on Sunday.

Huth returns to the Potters squad after serving a three-match suspension, but Wilkinson has impressed at right-back in his place and manager Tony Pulis has a tough decision to make.

Mamady Sidibe has been struggling with a hamstring problem but could be in contention after taking part in training on Friday.

Salif Diao also trained with the squad but remains a doubt due to the calf injury that forced him to miss the match with Wolves last week, while Amdy Faye has a back problem and is unlikely to feature.
