- Steven Schumacher will have a new goalkeeper in between the sticks in Viktor Johansson, while winger Eric-Junior Bocat will make his debut on the left.
- Sam Gallagher picked up a knock during Stoke's final pre-season game. If he isn't deemed fit enough to start, expect Niall Ennis to lead the line.
- Ben Sheaf and Raphael Rodrigues are the away side's only injury concerns heading into the opening game of the 2024/25 campaign.
- Mark Robins will stick with his trusted 4-2-3-1 system but could hand league debuts to summer signings Jack Rudoni and Ephron Mason-Clark.
