Stoke City

After surviving lower-league side Barrow in the FA Cup round 3, Barnsley will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Stoke in the Championship round 24. The Tykes are on an eight-game winless run in the English second tier, and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field. Both Halme and Oulare are sidelined with injuries, while Carlton ...

Peterborough

Monday’s football game at Vitality Stadium pits together Bournemouth and Peterborough, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the remainder of the season.

Stoke City welcome Preston to their Bet365 Stadium in the first game of the year. The Potters aim to kick off 2022 in style, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side.
