Taylor Harwood-Bellis starts: The predicted Stoke City XI to play Luton on Wednesday night
Stoke have been on a good run of form as of late and will be hoping to keep that going against Luton on Wednesday night.
The Hatters though have been one of the teams to watch in the Championship this year and will definitely provide a stern test for the Potters. Both clubs will fancy their chances of a potential play-off berth and therefore both clubs will be eager to bag the victory.
Michael O’Neill’s side were initially involved in the top six but have since slipped out of them and have fallen down the table. They aren’t even in the top half of the table as things stand.
Stoke though will be determined to ensure they don’t drop any more points this year and that will start with Luton in midweek.
After a 2-2 draw with Birmingham last time out, there is unlikely to be much change in the Stoke lineup.
In what was a solid game from the Potters, Tyrese Campbell stood out with two goals from the wing. He’ll start again here more than likely and will look to inflict similar punishment on Luton. So too will Jaden Philogene-Bidace, who had both the most dribbles and the most tackles of anyone in the Birmingham game.
In the centre of the field, it could be a return to the side for Nick Powell if he is fit enough to start. He looks likely to at least get a run out at some point and if he is able to play from the off, expect him to come into a more central role, in order to replace Sam Clucas.

Finally, in goal, Josef Bursik is the number one for Stoke and will
