Sports Mole takes a look at the Premier League clash between Wigan Athletic and Stoke City at the DW Stadium.

Stoke City travel to the DW Stadium on Saturday looking to bounce back from their shock defeat to Swindon Town in the League Cup.

The Potters have yet to register a win in the Premier League this season, but Tony Pulis will have a full squad to choose from as they seek to take three points back to the Britannia Stadium.

Roberto Martinez also has a fully-fit squad and will be buoyed by his side's performance in their 4-1 win over Nottingham Forest in the League Cup.

However, the Latics, who recorded a 2-0 win away at Southampton last week, will be without Antolin Alcaraz due to his red card at the City Ground.

Current form:
Wigan:
LW
Stoke: DD

Possible lineups:

Wigan: Al Habsi; Ramis, Boyce, Figueroa, Caldwell; Kone, McCarthy, Maloney, McArthur; Di Santo

Stoke: Begovic; Wilkinson, Shawcross, Huth, Wilson; Pennant, Cameron, Whelan, Kightly; Walters, Crouch

Sports Mole says: 2-2
