Hull City are still missing injured goalkeeper Boaz Myhill, while Stoke have defender Robert Huth back after a three match ban.
Huth will be competing for a place in the Stoke starting line-up with Andy Wilkinson at right back.
Back in training and hopeful of a place on the bench will be striker Mamady Sidibe and midfielder Salif Diao, who have been struggling with hamstring and calf injuries respectively.
James Beattie and Ricardo Fuller will again start upfront for Tony Pulis' side, with Turkey international Tuncay Sanli having to once again be content with a place on the bench.
Under fire Hull City manager Phil Brown will also be without forward Geovanni, who is suspended, so Craig Fagan may get a recall to the Hull starting XI.
Matt Duke will deputise in goal for the injured Myhill, while there is a possibility that club record signing Jimmy Bullard could be included in the squad for the first time in nine months.
