The Potters are looking to put their shocking run of form behind them as they sit just above the relegation zone already, just seven games into their second division campaign  and without bagging themselves a few wins could spell danger leading up to the Christmas break.

What is the team news?

Swansea City could be without midfielder Tom Carroll who is a huge concern from boss Graham Potter ahead of their latest fixture with Stoke away from home, on Tuesday night.

Following Saturday's 0-0 draw with Nottingham Forest at the Liberty Stadium, Carroll might have to sit out following on from his absence over the weekend due to a hip injury, while captain Leroy Fer is on the sidelines after picking up a groin strain at Millwall few weeks back.

For Stoke, star striker Benik Afobe should start alongside Tom Ince and Mame Biram Diouf on the flanks providing support for the big man up top, who's already bagged four goals this season.

Potter has kept his typical 4-3-3 shape but still a possibility before announcing the team later today/Tuesday morning.
