Hahnemann: Stoke City vs. Reading, 5/3 (R) Big game for Stoke--draw or win keeps them up. Loss could see them take the drop if Brighton wins. Reading expected to start their regular starters, save a couple of injuries. Marcus in between the pipes.
Stoke up via ex-Palace striker Ade Akinbiyi. Helps, because Brighton is up in their game. Reading now has to score twice in order for Stoke to be in trouble.
