Struggling Stoke City host relegation-battling Wycombe Wanderers at the bet365 Stadium on Saturday, hoping to end their winless run in the Championship.

With a defeat in their last three games, the Potters have dropped to 11th in the table, allowing Millwall to steal a march over them. Millwall are just a point ahead of Stoke in 10th place.

Having failed to win in nine consecutive league games, Stoke defeated Sheffield Wednesday and Luton Town in back-to-back victories to restore some normalcy. However, their latest run of setbacks has brought them back down to earth.

They will be glad to see Wycombe in a worse position, struggling at the foot of the table with just five wins from 33 games.

In their maiden Championship campaign, the Chairboys haven't managed to rise to the challenge so far, and time's running out for them.

They remain 12 points off safety, albeit with a game in hand.

In nine games between the sides, Stoke City have beaten Wycombe five times and lost just once.
