Team News: Stoke City make one change for Crystal Palace clash

Stoke City boss Paul Lambert makes just one change to his starting lineup for the Premier League clash with Crystal Palace.

Stoke City boss Paul Lambert has made just one change to his starting lineup for the Premier League clash with Crystal Palace.

The Potters head into the match knowing that defeat will result in the club being relegated from the top flight, with a victory realistically being required to maintain their hopes of survival.

However, Lambert has kept alterations to a minimum, with Glen Johnson replacing Bruno Martins Indi the only switch from the goalless draw at Liverpool.

As for Palace, Roy Hodgson has opted to keep the same side which thrashed Leicester City by a 5-0 scoreline last weekend.

Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha will continue in attack, with Christian Benteke being kept on the bench despite netting his third goal of the campaign against the Foxes.

Stoke City: Butland; Johnson, Shawcross, Zouma, Pieters; Shaqiri, Allen, N'Diaye, Bauer; Crouch, Diouf
Subs: Haugaard; Ireland, Adam, Cameron, Fletcher, Ramadan, Campbell

Crystal Palace: Hennessey; Ward, Tomkins, Sakho, Van Aanholt; Loftus-Cheek, Milivojevic, Cabaye, McArthur; Townsend, Zaha
Subs: Cavalieri, Wan-Bissaka, Kelly, Schlupp, Lee, Sorloth, Benteke
