Fixture: Stoke vs Watford
Competition: English Premier League 2016-17
Date: Tuesday, 3rd January, 20:00 GMT
There has been little festive cheer for Stoke after the fixture computer handed them trips to Anfield and Stamford Bridge in between Christmas and new year and despite flattering to deceive before losing both games, the visit of Watford gives them a chance to end on a high. Sunday’s home humbling by Spurs was a fifth defeat in seven for Walter Mazzarri’s inconsistent side. Paul Chronnell
