This Saturday, Tony Puliss Stoke side travel east to face relegation threatened Hullfor ourpenultimate away trip of the season. While the weekends results could leave the hosts in the relegation zone, once again, they could mathematically confirm the Potters Premier League survival. The equation is considerably more simple than it George Hill Jersey  was last week. If we win, we are guaranteed another season of top flight football. Even if we lose, this could still be the case if eighteenth and nineteenth placed Newcastle and Middlesbrough draw their more than crucial fixture on Monday night.Sir Stan would be proud This has been a steady season of modest but genuine achievement for Stoke, it stark contrast to theroller-coaster ride experienced by Saturdays opponents over the last nine months. Aside from being the only UK city with its own independent telephone network company, and playing host to that episode of Only Fools and Horses that no-one really likes, prior to the autumn of last year, Kingston upon Hull had done little to put itself on the map. Then, newly promoted and under the guidance of a bright, energetic, enigmatic manager in Phil Brown, its football team, Hull City AFC, took the Premier League by storm, winning six of the first nine top flight games in their history, and finding themselves in late October separated from the league leaders by goal difference only.Hull seemed to have adapted to life in the Premier League better than any before them Now, they sit just one place above the relegation zone, having added just fourteen points to their overall tally in the twenty-six games since the heady days of autumn, in stark contrast to the twenty points ama sed from those first nine games. I think its fair to say that their early season dreams of European football nextyear have gone out of the window. So, what exactly has gone wrong? Some people claim that Brown hasalienatedhis dre sing room, humiliating his players by keeping them on the pitch for a half time rollicking when losing heavily at Manchester City back in December, andwith his increasing hot-headed personality, recently heavily criticising Arsene Wenger and his Arsenalplayers after they knocked Hull out of the FA Cup.Brown claims never to have shaken hands with Wengeror used a sunbed Others suggest that Hulls direct, yet persistent style, and tactics of pre suring opponents have been su sed out by other teams, who are now able to contain  Eric Bledsoe Jersey their threat. In truth, I dont really know or particularly care. What I do know is that Stoke, having ground away all season to produce results, and suffered the embarra sment of having bets on us to be relegated paid out on by Paddy Power, back when Hull were enjoying the high life at the top of the table, now lie four places and five points better off than Browns men. Im aware that this article is taking arather gloatfultone, but as a Stoke fan havingsuffered the condemnation of the media and the general public earlier in the season, while having to put up with their waxing lyrical about Hull, this is a very pleasant position to be in. Having looked generally jaded over the past few weeks, suffering from first a head wound, then a torn thigh muscle, Stoke striker James Beattie is once again a doubt for the match, Pulis, unconvinced of his fitne s following his display against West Ham last week, having ordered him to undergo a second scan on his thigh. If Beattie fails to prove his fitne s to start, the mantle may be pa sed to scapegoat of the fans who can never be content with what weve achieved, Richard Cre swell, whose move to Hull fell through at a late stage due to a problem with his medical in 2007, allowing Stoke to move in and sign him up, our medical procedureseemingly consisting of: can he walk? yes well have him. More likely though, Senegalese loanee Henri Camara Rawle Alkins Jersey  would start his first game for the club since joining from Wigan back in February, having impre sed as a second half substitute against the Hammers. Beattie aside, Pulis has no new injury worries, though Mamady Sidibe, Salif Diao, Amdy Faye and Danny Higginbotham are all still ruled out. Meanwhile, having returned from his loan spell at Tranmere, which ended with the disappointment of mi sing out on the play-offs on the final day of the League One season, there is an outside chance that young defender Ryan Shotton will be handed a place on the bench for Stoke, as there is for former Hull mam Leon Cort, who has deputised occasionally for the Potters in the centre-back position this season.Cort in his Hull days and more recently with Stoke Meanwhile, Brown has a relatively healthy squad to select his matchday squad from, with just two long-term absentees in Anthony Gardner and Jimmy Bullard ruled out with back and knee injuries respectively. In a situation opposite to the one with Cre swell, former Tottenham centre-back Gardner was arousing interest from Stoke last summer before moving instead to Hull, paving the way for Stoke to sign Abdoulaye Faye from Newcastle instead. Im sure weve come out the better of that one, ending up with our entertaining and incredibly reliable Senegalese colo sus, who Kira Lewis Jr. Jersey  has quickly become our captain, rather than an injury-prone player who has made just eight appearances all season, all for 2.25 million as opposed to the 2.5 million Hull payed for Gardner.As Hull are a side in a desperate situation, and Stoke have by comparison very little to play for, with survival surely all but confirmed, you might expect them to be more up for the game, and thus be the favourites to win it on their home soil. However, Pulis and Stoke will be veryeager to get over the forty point barrier, which once  Jahlil Okafor Jersey pa sed allows you to breathe that bit easier, and will be equally keen to throw a spanner in the works of Hull. What Hull do not have is confidence, having won just one of their last nineteen games, while the rea surance of near guaranteed security should allow Stoke to play with the winning mindset that should, in my opinion, earn us at least the single point needed to take us over the forty point mark. The last four meetings of the clubs have ended in 1-1 draws, and a similar scoreline this weekend seems a likely outcome.Key Battles:Geovanni v Abdoulaye FayeThe talented but temperamental Brazilan striker/attacking midfielder Geovanni is undoubtedly Hulls biggest threat. For that reason, none other than the inspirational Faye shouldbe tasked with the job of keeping the former Barcelona man quiet and in doing so nullifying much of the Tigers attacking potency. Michael Turner v Ricardo FullerFuller has historically played well against Hull, winning and scoring a penalty in the return fixture last November. If Beattie is deemed unfit to play, Fuller will take on the role of number oneforward for S
