THE PREDICTION
Stoke played out a drab 0-0 draw away at Millwall last weekend in the opening Championship fixture, but recorded an impressive 0-1 win away at Wolves in their midweek Carabao Cup match. Michael O’Neill’s men look solid at the back having not conceded a goal yet this season and whilst Bristol City are in good spirits having won their first league game of the season, they are set to be without captain Tomas Kalas for this game, after the central defender picked up an injury in their midweek Carabao Cup tie against Northampton. The hosts look set to take full advantage here and should find the net more than once against a Robins defence minus Kalas in what should be a comfortable win for the Potters.
