Team News: One change for Stoke City as Peter Crouch replaces Jonathan Walters

Stoke City make one change ahead their home Premier League clash against West Bromwich Albion, who only name top-scorer Saido Berahino on the bench again.

Stoke City have made one change ahead of this afternoon's Premier League clash against West Bromwich Albion at the Britannia Stadium.

Jonathan Walters, reportedly suffering from an illness, has been replaced in the Potters starting XI by Peter Crouch, while Bojan Krkic, who picked up a back injury in the win at Everton, is passed fit.

Meanwhile, the Baggies have made four changes, with Chris Baird, Chris Brunt, Graham Dorrans and Brown Ideye all coming into the starting lineup.

Seven-goal top scorer Saido Berahino is again named only on the bench amid rumours linking him with a January exit.

Stoke: Begovic; Cameron, Shawcross, Muniesa, Pieters; Nzonzi, Whelan; Diouf, Bojan, Arnautovic; Crouch
Subs: Butland; Huth, Wilson, Adam, Walters, Assaidi, Shenton

West Brom: Foster, Wisdom, Lescott, McAuley, Baird, Gardner, Morrison, Brunt, Dorrans, Sessegnon, Ideye
Subs: Myhill, Gamboa, Dawson, Yacob, Mulumbu, Varela, Berahino
