TONY PULIS made one change to the side that won at West Ham last weekend . . . recalling matchwinner Ricardo Fuller to his starting line-up to face Hull City in the Barclays Premier League game at the Britannia Stadium.

Fuller, who scored a spectacular individual goal after coming on as a substitute at Upton Park, came in for Mamady Sidibe and partnered David Kitson in attack after he passed a fitness test on a hamstring injury before the game.

Pulis resisted the temptation to recall central defender Ryan Shawcross and midfielder Dean Whitehead, even though both were available once again and they were instead included on a strong-looking substitute's bench.

Captain Abdoulaye Faye was passed fit to take his place in the line-up after recovering from a knee injury picked up in the win at Upton Park.

Hull were boosted by the return to fitness of striker Caleb Folan who missed the victory over Fulham due to illness, while long-serving defender Andy Dawson was named on the bench after recovering from a calf injury.

STOKE CITY (4-4-2): Sorensen, Huth, Faye, Higginbotham, Collins; Lawrence, Delap, Whelan, Etherington; Fuller, Kitson. Subs: Begovic, Sidibe, Pugh, Shawcross, Whitehead, Tuncay, Wilkinson.
