Stoke boss Mark Hughes fears his side's confidence could be eroded if their struggles in front of goal continue.

The Potters failed to find the net for a third Premier League game in succession as they played out a goalless draw with West Brom at the Britannia Stadium on Saturday.

They have struck just four times all season and, although they at least arrested a run of three successive defeats, they have not won in the top-flight since August.
