Liverpool head to the Britannia tomorrow to face Tony Pulis' Stoke City in one of the more challenging away fixtures on the Premier League calendar.

Like cooking teriyaki chicken in a hot tub, yesterday's match against Stoke didn't turn into the kind of party we'd all hoped for. Luckily, it wasn't the only football played by Liverpool this week, with the first game— the u19 NextGen outing against Norwegian side Molde—likely seen by just about nobody compared to yesterday's frustrating showing at the Britannia.

There are four ex-Spurs players in the Stoke City squad and while the Potters also have league and European ambitions to worry about, we can expect to come up against some, or maybe all of them this evening.

Javier Hernandez is fit to face Stoke at the Britannia this weekend, and that's the last news that the Potters would have wanted.

Chicarito has scored three goals in two appearances against them and netted in the 27th minutes in both games.
