West Bromwich Albion will be keen to get back to winning ways after being brought back down to earth by Swansea in midweek.
The Baggies were on a tremendous run, which had seen them in third place in the English Premier League; however, a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Swansea has brought things back a little into perspective with manager Steve Carke desperate to put the loss behind them and move in when they take on Stoke City.
"I've got no reason to have a go at these players, no reason whatsoever," Clarke said. "We're in a fantastic position and we've had a great season so far.
"We took 12 points out of 15 in November, which is a fantastic achievement for us - and we look forward to the month of December, which starts tomorrow against Stoke City.
"So, what would give me the excuse to have a go at them. There is no reason for it.
"We did bounce straight back after the Fulham game, which was a poor performance as well. We played Reading, which was a tough game, and we managed to win 1-0. And, if that's the way it is tomorrow, I'd be delighted.
"But it's another difficult game against Stoke in the Premier League. It's always a hard game no matter who they play against, they always cause their opponents problems.
"But it's a challenge for us and we look forward to it."
Zoltan Gera comes back into the squad after missing out on the midweek loss to Swansea, meaning goalkeeper Ben Foster is the only man missing through injury for West Brom.
Stoke manager Tony Pulis will make a late decision on forward Peter Crouch after the England international had two teeth knocked out in a clash with Newcastle's Fabricio Coloccini during their 2-1 win.
