Man City defender Kompany: Stoke will be difficult challenge

Manchester City defender Vincent Kompany says they face a massive test against Stoke City tomorrow.

Kompany believes nothing less than three points are needed as the Blues try and build up momentum going into December.

"We have Stoke next and I wouldn't say they were any less difficult than Fulham because both are difficult teams to play against, particularly on their own ground," he told City's website.

"It will be a tough, physical challenge but we will go into the game in great confidence and really go for the win.

"We'll be prepared because Stoke gave us a number of tough encounters last season and they were up the challenge each time. They are also on a good run of form at present so it will be a real test, but if we play to our maximum in defence, midfield and attack we are a match for any team."
