Stoke City boss Tony Pulis is adamant Ricardo Fuller will play if fit.
There have been suggestions Sunday's clash with Wolves might be ideal for the 30-year-old to miss because a booking would result in a two-match suspension.
Fuller has received nine yellow cards this season but not playing would remove the threat of a ban as an amnesty comes into force next week.
Pulis, however, is unlikely to take that issue into consideration in his selection.
Pulis said: "I will speak to Ric on Saturday, I will see how he feels.
"If he is fit and he wants to play and wants to start, then we will make a decision then."
