Crystal Palace team news vs Stoke City confirmed as Patrick Vieria makes Eberechi Eze choice

Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira has made five changes to his starting XI for the visit of Championship side Stoke to Selhurst Park in the FA Cup this evening.

The Eagles drew 1-1 at home to Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday and Vieira has largely kept faith in the team that took to the pitch against the Clarets.

Jack Butland returns in goal as has done in each of Palace's last two FA Cup games against Millwall and Hartlepool United, with Vicente Guaita on the bench.

Joel Ward is still unavailable as he recovers from a groin injury and Vieira has chosen to stick with Nathaniel Clyne in his place.

At left-back Tayo Adaramola - who made his Palace debut in the last round against Hartlepool - gets his first start for the club in place of Tyrick Mitchell.

Joachim Andersen is back at centre-back alongside his usual partner Marc Gueho who starts as captain this evening.

In midfield, Cheikhou Kouyate is brought back into the starting XI after beginning on the bench against Burnley. Luka Milivojevic, who played ahead of Kouyate vs the Clarets, is among the substitutes tonight.

Will Hughes and Michael Olise join the centre of the midfield, leaving Wilfried Zaha and Jordan Ayew to take on wide berths on either side of Jean-Philippe Mateta.

Conor Gallagher, Eberechi Eze, Odsonne Edouard and Christian Benteke are all on the bench.
