Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield
All over!
Big win for Stoke as they move out of the bottom three. Huddersfield, meanwhile, will be looking over their shoulder.
Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield
Four minutes of time added on and it's party time in the Stoke stands. It's been a while since they could properly enjoy a victory and they are making up for it now.
Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield
Steve Mounie hits a speculative effort from distance. Straight at Jack Butland.
Not a good day at the office at all for Huddersfield.
Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield
Only one side looks like scoring in these final minutes as Stoke counter quickly again. The excellent Xherdan Shaqiri charges away down the right, crosses but Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting fires well over.
Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield
Collin Quaner shoots wide for Huddersfield, well wide. The Terriers have just offered nothing going forward all game.
Laurent Depoitre is on to try and beef up the attack, replacing Jonathan Hogg.
Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield
Peter Crouch's final appearance for Stoke?
The Chelsea target replaces Mame Biram Diouf to make his 450th Premier League appearance.
Stoke 2-0 Huddersfield
Into the final 20 minutes and just the one shot on target for Huddersfield all game. That will be of real concern for manager David Wagner.
Stoke make a change as Geoff Cameron comes on for Charlie Adam.
Mame Biram Diouf
Surely game set and match for Stoke and a winning start for Paul Lambert as the hosts add a second.
It comes from a Huddersfield mistake as Aaron Mooy gives the ball away, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting finds Xherdan Shaqiri, who flicks the ball into Mame Biram Diouf's pass and he finishes from the edge of the area.
Stoke 1-0 Huddersfield
Joe Allen and Xherdan Shaqiri combine down the right before the latter cuts inside and hits a low effort at goal. Not enough power, though, and Jonas Lossl gathers with ease.
Stoke 1-0 Huddersfield
It's gone all scrappy again with misplaced passes and poor control. Stoke won't mind, though. Huddersfield are offering zip in attack.
Stoke 1-0 Huddersfield
Another change for Huddersfield as Alex Pritchard, quiet on his full debut for the club, is replaced by forward Abdelhamid Sabiri.
No sign of a Huddersfield fight back yet, it's all Stoke as Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting cushions a header over the bar.
Stoke 1-0 Huddersfield
This game has changed massively now with Stoke a threat every time they attack.
Jonas Lossl keeps out an effort from Xherdan Shaqiri before ushering Mame Biram Diouf wide after the Stoke forward has broke through.
Stoke 1-0 Huddersfield
That goal lifts Stoke out of the relegation zone as things stand. This will be a massive win for them if they hold on.
Huddersfield boss David Wagner responds to the goal by making a change, Collin Quaner on for Tom Ince.
Joe Allen
A breakthrough!
The best passing move of the game results in the opener as Charlie Adam lofts the ball over the defence, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting gives chase before playing a low pass into the box. It runs all the way through to Joe Allen, who sidefoots home.
Stoke 0-0 Huddersfield
Have a lot of respect for someone who feels comfortable enough with their appearance to roll the sleeves up on their coat. That's the look Paul Lambert has gone for, the camera zoning in on him as he takes advantage of a break in play to pass some instructions to Kurt Zouma.
Lambert will be more than happy with what he's seen from his side so far. They've looked as comfortable as Lambert with rolled-up coat sleeves.
Stoke 0-0 Huddersfield
Xherdan Shaqiri volleys in with a peach of a strike after a long throw into the Huddersfield box is not cleared.
Won't count, though, he's offside.
Stoke 0-0 Huddersfield
Huddersfield have already done better than they did in their last game against West Ham. They conceded 40 seconds into the second half of that game, still goalless here.
Stoke 0-0 Huddersfield
Right, that was one of the worst halves of football in living memory, so it can't get any worse, can it?
We're back under way.
Stoke 0-0 Huddersfield
Passing accuracy in that half was 67% for Stoke and just 49% for Huddersfield.
Scrappy.
