Sports Mole previews the Premier League encounter between Norwich City and Stoke City at Carrow Road on Saturday.

Norwich City welcome Stoke City to Carrow Road on Saturday as both teams look to kickstart their Premier League campaigns.

The Canaries languish 16th in the Premier League, with just one win from their opening nine games.

Chris Hughton will still be without Harry Kane (foot) and Russell Martin (back).

Tony Pulis's side also have just one win to their name, but are two points better off and in ninth position.

Marc Wilson was stretchered off with a broken leg in last week's 0-0 draw with Sunderland and now faces a long spell on the sidelines.

The Potters welcome Greg Whelan back from a hamstring complaint, but he is unlikely to start.

Recent form:

Norwich: LLLWD

Stoke: LWDLD

Possible lineups:

Norwich: Ruddy; Garrido, Johnson, Bassong, Turner; Pilkington, Hoolahan, E Bennett, Tettey; Holt, Jackson

Stoke: Begovic; Cameron, Shawcross, Huth, Wilkinson; Whitehead, Nzonzi, Adam, Kightly; Walters, Crouch

Sports Mole says: 1-1
