Stoke welcome Matthew Etherington and Jermaine Pennant back into their side for the clash with Blackburn.

Stoke welcome Matthew Etherington and Jermaine Pennant back into their lineup for Saturday's lunchtime kickoff against Blackburn.

Peter Crouch also returns while Thomas Sorensen keeps his spot in goal, with Asmir Begovic taking his place on the bench.

Blackburn have Paul Robinson fit after a clash last weekend while young defender Grant Hanley fills the defensive slot at the back.

Stoke: Sorensen; Huth, Shawcross, Wilkinson, Whelan, Wilson, Pennant, Delap, Etherington, Walters, Crouch
Subs: Begovic, Higginbotham, Upson, Whitehead, Jones, Fuller, Jerome

Blackburn: Robinson; Givet, Dann, Hanley, Givet, Lowe, Formica, Pedersen, Nzonzi, Rochina, Hoilett, Yakubu
Subs: Bunn, Henley, Petrovic, Vukcevic, Blackman, Goodwillie, Roberts

Stoke will hope to avoid a second straight home defeat having lost 3-2 at the Britannia to QPR last weekend.
