Here at BetVictor News, we’ll be following the latest Stoke City stats throughout 2026/27 as Mark Robins tries to turn another lower-half finish into something more encouraging.
Last season ended with Stoke 17th on 55 points, having won 15 and lost 21 of their 46 Championship matches. The Potters scored 51 goals and conceded 56, so the final position looked a little worse than their goal difference of minus five might suggest.
There were certainly afternoons when the defence did its job. Stoke kept 13 league clean sheets, with Viktor Johansson responsible for eight of them despite missing a sizeable chunk of the campaign. Finding enough at the opposite end proved harder, particularly when matches became tight.
Sorba Thomas led their Championship scoring with 10 goals and also produced 11 assists. Those are excellent numbers from midfield, but the fact nobody else reached double figures rather neatly highlights where Stoke were missing something.
That makes goals one of the more useful areas to follow this time around. Robins already had a side capable of keeping opponents quiet on its better days; turning more of those competitive performances into wins would change the complexion of a season very quickly.
Results at the bet365 Stadium, goals scored and the distance to the top half should give a good indication of whether that progress is happening. You can compare Stoke with clubs across England through our football stats hub, while Championship betting follows the division throughout the campaign. Both destinations are live on BetVictor.
