Stoke City to Win
While Morecambe is not that far behind Stoke City since they are just one league below them, the difference in quality between these specific teams is a bit much for Morecambe to overcome.
We feel that Stoke City is way ahead of them in this regard, especially since Morecambe barely avoided relegation to League Two last season, while Stoke City is a stable Championship team. So, we don't see any other outcome for this game than a win for the guests.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
These two teams haven't met in recent years, so we don't have any h2h data to help us out in our prediction. Still, we can see this being a low-scoring affair and we don't expect to see more than a couple of goals.
After all, both of the Stoke City matches in Championship this season have gone under 2.5 total goals, while the same is true for one of the two Morecambe games in League One until now.

Morecambe vs Stoke City: Recent news, latest form, and probable lineups
Although the guests are the favourites to win this game, we can see it being a interesting match. So, let's check the teams out now:
Morecambe
Last season was a tough one for Morecambe since they narrowly escaped relegation, finishing just two points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone. However, the new season didn't start that well for Morecambe either since the team only managed to win one point in the first two rounds of League One.
On the bright side, only Courtney Duffus is on the team's injury list at this time, so they will be able to field their best team against Stoke City.
Morecambe predicted lineup:
Ripley – Watts, Delaney, Rawson, Love – Gibson, Fane – Weir, Hunter, McLoughlin – Obika
Stoke City
After an average last season that saw them finish in the fourteenth place in Championship, Stoke City is hoping for a better season this year. Meanwhile, the team started this season in the second rank of English football with a win and a loss in the first couple of rounds.
When it comes to team news, Stoke City will once again be without Nick Powell and Harry Souttar, who are on the sidelines with injuries at the moment.
Stoke City predicted lineup:
Bursik – Taylor, Flint, Wilmot – Clarke, Baker, Laurent, Smallbone, Tymon – Gayle, Brown
