Crouch planning to continue good Euro record for Stoke

Peter Crouch will be out to continue his good scoring form in European competitions for Stoke City tomorrow night.

The Potters host Valencia in the Europa League's Round of 32 first leg and the striker will be hoping he can improve his record of more than 20 goals in 52 appearances in Europe as Stoke look to get to the next phase of the competition after a solid group stage showing.

"I am proud of my record in Europe, I have always enjoyed playing in the Champions League and Europa League, and I have seemed to give one or two teams a few problems in my time which they are perhaps not used to," he told the club's official website.

"It would be fantastic if that could continue against Valencia, but the most important thing is to try and help us come home through these ties.

"If I score then great, but if I don't and we go through to the next stage , that would be great."
