Promotion is very much the aim again this term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cyle Larin leads the line, with Divin Mubama and Lewis Dobbin adding to a dangerous attack. Making St Mary&#8217;s a fortress is central to their promotion push.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-stoke-city-go-into-the-game\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Stoke City go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stoke finished 17th last season on 55 points, a mid-table campaign short of their ambitions. Kicking on towards the top half is the target this term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Potters are well organised and have a good recent record against Southampton, winning at St Mary&#8217;s last season. Springing another surprise is the plan.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\"
