Badou Ndiaye faces late test for Potters

Stoke continue their search for a first victory of the season when they face fellow strugglers Huddersfield at the bet365 Stadium.

Central defender Nathan Collins will miss out as he serves the second game of a three-match ban following his sending off at Crawley in the Carabao Cup.

By contrast, midfielder Joe Allen is available after serving the suspension he was given when the Potters lost 2-1 to Bristol City.

Allen’s involvement is dependent on the fitness of Badou Ndiaye, who sustained an ankle injury against Nottingham Forest and is set for a late fitness test.

Huddersfield sit just one place above rock-bottom Stoke and are also winless this season.

Manager Danny Cowley handed debuts to new signing Danny Simpson and left-back Jaden Brown during the Terriers’ 1-1 draw with Millwall on Saturday.

Brown was drafted in to replace Terence Kongolo after his calf issue resurfaced, but Cowley is hopeful the latter will be fit to return on Tuesday night.

Midfielder Alex Pritchard is also expected to make a comeback after recovering from a knee injury.
