Stoke manager Tony Pulis has a series of decisions to make ahead of the visit of Tottenham on Sunday.
Midfielder Glenn Whelan (groin), Andy Wilkinson (back) and Marc Wilson (hamstring) are all close to contention, but may not be risked from the start as they look for full fitness.
Whelan and Wilkinson were ruled out of the visit to Sunderland on Monday but are likely to be available, while Wilson was replaced at half-time as a precaution.
Meanwhile, midfielder Mousa Démbéle is fit for Tottenham after recovering from a hamstring injury.
Aaron Lennon came off against Chelsea in midweek with a slight hamstring strain but is fit to play, according to manager Andre Villas-Boas.
Midfielder Sandro and defensive duo Younes Kaboul and William Gallas are still unavailable.
Match Notes
Andre Villas-Boas is clinging on to his Champions League hopes by his fingernails and nothing but a victory will suffice at the Britannia Stadium.
The spirited point at Stamford Bridge leaves Spurs still in with a shout of sneaking a place in next season's elite competition, an outcome which could be vital in their ambitions of keeping Gareth Bale.
Stoke have virtually secured safety and the big question now is whether this will be Tony Pulis's last home game in charge.
