West Bromwich Albion will host Stoke City at the Hawthorns on Saturday (November 12) afternoon in the Championship.
The hosts have hit a good patch in November after struggling in the last two months. West Brom beat promotion-chasing Queens Park Rangers 1-0 in their last game, with Kyle Bartley scoring the game's sole goal with a towering header midway through the second half.
West Brom have picked up just 20 points from 19 games and sit 22nd in the standings. They are just two points above last-placed Huddersfield Town and will look to widen that gap this weekend.
Stoke, meanwhile, have had mixed results this season but returned to winning ways in the league last time out. They beat Luton Town 2-0 at home, with Nick Powell opening the scoring after three minutes with his first home goal of the season. An own goal from Tom Lockyer saw the Potters double their advantage.
The visitors are 15th in the standings with 25 points from 20 games. They will now target back-to-back wins to move up the points table.
