Match preview
Two sides in the midst of solid recent stretches of form are set to lock horns in a Championship clash at The Bet365 Stadium on Saturday, February 25th.
The matchup in question will see Stoke City act as hosts, in a meeting with promotion hopefuls Millwall.
First, let’s take a look at the recent endeavours of the former.
Stoke, for their part, have enjoyed an altogether productive time of things of late.
Last time out, meanwhile, Alex Neil’s troops bounced back from a disappointing defeat at the hands of Blackpool, to emerge on the right side of the result at the Liberty Stadium.
After the hosts’ Morgan Whittaker put Swansea in front inside two minutes, Stoke dusted themselves down in impressive fashion, thanking a Josh Laurent double, and injury-time strike from Lewis Baker, for an eventual 3-1 triumph.
And the Potters, in the process, took another significant step towards safety, now sitting a full nine points clear of the bottom three in England’s 2nd tier.

Securing a third win in four this weekend, though, will prove no easy task.
Upcoming opponents Millwall have too long proven themselves a tough nut to crack.
The Lions currently sit in the thick of the promotion playoff picture, whilst in possession of a game in hand on both of the sides directly above them.
This comes owing to just a solitary defeat from their last six fixtures, a run which includes a trio of victories, too.
Not only that, but, after getting the better of 2nd-placed Sheffield United courtesy of a Tom Bradshaw hat-trick last weekend, Gary Rowett’s men followed up with an equally impressive result in midweek.
On this occasion, it was runaway table-toppers Burnley who came up short at The Den, en route to a hard-fought 1-1 stalemate.
We at 101 therefore view Millwall as favourites to ultimately emerge from The Bet365 Stadium with all three points on Saturday evening.
Do not discount hosts Stoke, however, who will be quietly confident in their chances of clinching a share of the spoils.
