A look ahead to this afternoon's Sky Bet Championship encounter against the Potters at Ewood Park.

Stoke City take on Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park in the first game following Michael O'Neill's departure. It has been a dramatic couple of days for Stoke ...

It's not happened enough this season but the manager coming is going to have a really good group of players and more importantly a really good group of staff to get where he needs to what he needs to get to." Brilliant from Campbell to run 80 yards and he slips in Wright-Phillips for a shot down the inside right... Blackburn try something different with that corner to try to avoid Flint. Stoke had good blockers, goalkeeper, maybe we should have had a penalty but I don't want to talk about that." They had to fight hard for that in the end. "I hate to say we had a great second half because I hate losing, the fans hate losing... Holden: "There is a basis of a really good team here. I hope it gives everyone a lift and players go into the Swansea game on Wednesday with a little bit more confidence." Holden: "That's what it takes to win a game of football. "Lewis is a really good player. Maybe the keeper should have done a little bit better but he had the confidence to take the shot. Dean Holden has been preparing the squad in training on Thursday and Friday while news developed about what was going to happen next in the dug out.

Joe Rankin-Costello was then booked for pulling down Dwight Gayle when caught on the wrong side, with Kaminski tipped away a dipping Lewis Baker free kick.

First Rovers wanted a penalty as Brereton felt he was bundled over in the box by Wilmot, though nothing was given. Rankin-Costello and John Buckley were the two to be replaced. There was little relief for Rovers who would trail in the 27th minute. There was at least some intensity being shown, which the crowd responded to. Stoke were quick out of the blocks and should have led eight minutes in. The halfway point of the half was reached with Rovers needing to make a change, Sam Szmodics going down for a second half after taking a knock to the head, with Tyrhys Dolan on in his place.

Blackburn Rovers head coach Jon Dahl Tomasson has confirmed that attacker Ryan Hedges and centre back Hayden Carter are both available for his side'

Central defence is one area that has been a big issue for Blackburn recently in terms of a lack of options, so the return of Carter in particular is a major lift for the club. [quoted by the club’s official website](https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2022/august/26/boss-handed-double-boost-ahead-of-stoke-showdown/) as saying: “We have a couple of doubts but the good news is that Hayden Carter is back. Carter meanwhile, has yet to make an appearance for the club this season, having picked up a hamstring issue over the course of the summer.

The new manager coming in is going to have a really good group of players and more importantly, a really good group of staff to push this club where it needs to get to. We showed what a good team we could be first half with the ball, and in the second half, we defended resolutely." Jack (Bonham) had one save to make, in the first half, and it was a good save. First half, we knew that Blackburn play, they've got a nice style of football, we knew we could catch them high up the pitch, which we did countless times. The boys were disappointed with the first half. We need to start in minute one.

Live updates, analysis and post-match reaction from Jon Dahl Tomasson as Stoke City arrive at Ewood Park.

It's a quick counter from Rovers and Dolan's shot is blocked/saved before the same happens to Dack. We didn't play well in the first half, we were passive and made bad decisions with and without the ball. Lovely ball from Wharton over the top finds Brereton Diaz who should shoot on his left but instead tries to win a penalty. Should hit the target. Credit to Stoke for blocking the shots and the goalkeeper for saving them. I hate to say who names until the deal is signed. It was a fair reflection on a dismal opening 45 minutes from Rovers, for the third successive Championship game. We are disappointed with the result. I don't know if it was a penalty. Rovers had two goals ruled out after referee Leigh Doughty failed to play advantage following fouls outside the penalty area. He is a good player. His good work down the left saw Tyrhys Dolan shot blocked from close range before Bradley Dack's rebound was also cleared away.
