Stoke strikers Ricardo Fuller and James Beattie are doubtful for the Barclays Premier League match against Manchester United at the Britannia Stadium.
Fuller suffered a groin problem in the Carling Cup victory over Blackpool while Beattie is struggling with a recurrence of an ankle injury.
Manager Tony Pulis could recall Richard Cresswell to the attack to partner Dave Kitson.
