Stoke can now add two more Sundays to their fixture dates after progression in European competition ensured the first two away games of the season will be moved.
Due to Stoke defeating Hajduk Split on Thursday to book themselves in the play off round of the competition they will now take on Swiss side FC Thun on 18th and 25th of this month, meaning the games at Norwich and West Brom will be put back to Sunday the 21st and 28th respectively.
With City kicking off against Chelsea next weekend also on a Sunday, due to Sky coverage, it will be well into September before the Potters have a Saturday game.
