Glenn Whelan has not played since the end of April and is again doubtful with a groin injury
Safety means the heat is off but there's still serious money to play for. A finish as high as 10th or as low as 17th is still possible for both clubs, with £5m the difference between those placings.
Southampton will look back on survival with satisfaction. A dreadful start left promoted Saints rock bottom after 10 matches with just four points and an alarming number of goals conceded. Nigel Adkins inspired a recovery before his controversial exit led to the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino in January.
A top-half finish looked possible at one stage under the Argentine manager with home wins over Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea but in the end, Southampton have edged to safety last weekend; they are without a win in their last five matches, scoring just two goals in those games.
Curiously, Stoke will finish the season with their lowest-ever Premier League points tally although they could end it in their highest-ever position.
A win will take the club to 44 points which compares with the 45, 46, 47, and 45 point totals earned in previous Premier League seasons - although you have to go back to 1980 for City's last win at Southampton, a 2-1 victory at the Dell.
Manager Tony Pulis accepts Stoke are finally established in the elite as a sixth season in the top flight beckons. But expectations have also risen and fans may not have anticipated a brush with troubled waters.
Increased firepower might have stabilised an inconsistent second half of the season. Only bottom club QPR have scored fewer league goals during the campaign.
The end-of-season awards took place in both camps in midweek. French midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin landed the Southampton Player of the Year award while highly regarded Bosnian international goalkeeper Asmir Begovic swept the board at Stoke.
And recent meetings suggest a gala finale at St Mary's: the last three contests between the sides have seen 16 goals.

A celebratory atmosphere is still likely
at St Mary's, but it will be tempered by uncertainty over the future of
executive chairman Nicola Cortese.
The Italian is out of contract in the summer and wants
clarity from owners, the Liebherr Trust, on his vision to take the club
to the next level.
