Stoke slumped to a fifth defeat in six to heap further pressure on Mark Hughes as West Ham's Marko Arnautovic came back to haunt his old club in a 3-0 win.
Chants of "Hughes Out" and "sacked in the morning" were heard from home supporters at the bet365 Stadium, where kick-off had been delayed by an hour due to a power cut.
Once proceedings got under way, David Moyes' West Ham were sent on their way by a controversially-awarded Mark Noble penalty, which could result in retrospective punishment for Manuel Lanzini after he appeared to dive, and Hughes' mood was darkened further by goals from Arnautovic and substitute Diafra Sakho.
It was particularly galling for Hughes that Arnautovic got on scoresheet given he was booed throughout having forced through a £25 million summer move to West Ham, who moved above Stoke in the table with this win.
Stoke chairman Peter Coates had identified this fixture and last Tuesday's with Burnley as pivotal and Hughes' position may now be precarious after two defeats.
A sign things would go wrong for Stoke on a pivotal afternoon arrived around an hour before kick-off when power was lost.
It remained out for almost an hour, delaying kick-off and leaving thousands of fans outside the stadium because the turnstiles could not be operated.
A week after some fans confronted his team, who had just been beaten 5-1 by Tottenham, at Stoke station, Hughes may have feared a growing irritation among supporters again before the game finally started.

Grumbles and groans ring around the London Stadium as the referee blows his whistle for the final time. West Ham leave with a draw, but it's one that hides just how poor they were for most of the game. Stoke weren't much better and didn't do enough to punish poor goalkeeping from Adrian, but they created the more chances of the two and did well to fight back after going a goal down.
Allen picks up the ball in the middle of the pitch and quickly fires a deep cross into the West Ham penalty area and towards Crouch, but the striker ends up pushing Cresswell to the ground as they battle for possession and gives away a free-kick. That should be the final action of the game.

Stoke City will be aiming to extend their winning run in the Premier League to four games when they square off against West Ham United at London Stadium. The Potters have found their best form of late, but Saturday’s football match against Slaven Bilic’s troops will be anything but a walk in the park for the visitors. Anyhow, Mark Hughes’ men do not want to stop now and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. West Ham United defeated the likes of Crystal Palace and Sunderland in October, but Everton proved to be a big catch for the Hammers at the weekend. The capital club aim to bounce back from the 2-0 loss and, taking everything into account, we predict that fans will see a high-scoring affair at London Stadium. In their last meeting in the Premier League Stoke City recorded a 2-1 win over West Ham.

Stoke City vs West Ham United
English Premier League
Date: Saturday, 16 December 2017
Kick-Off: 15:00 UK
Venue: Bet365 Stadium (Stoke-on-Trent).
West Ham United look rock-solid at the back under David Moyes. The relegation-threatened outfit kept their net untouched in back-to-back clashes with the Premier League heavyweights Chelsea and Arsenal within only four days.
Can the Hammers keep such form going and make it three clean sheets on the trot this Saturday when they travel to Bet365 Stadium to tackle fellow strugglers Stoke City in the clash which has all the ingredients of being a relegation six-pointer at this stage?
The Potters could well wrap themselves up into the relegation scrap with a potential failure here. If it happens, it would be the third in a row for Mark Hughes and his side who suffered a disaster at Wembley last weekend allowing five goals against Tottenham Hotspur. The mid-week saw them lose after conceding the 89th-minute winner against Burnley at Turf Moor.
The hosts have actually lost four of last five matches and they just look unrecognizable at the back. Believe it or not, Mark Hughes’ side has the weakest defensive record in the entire league at the moment, having leaked in as many as 36 goals so far in the season.
This will be the music to the ears of Javier Hernandez who is West Ham’s top scorer in this term with four goals. Chicharito missed a fantastic chance to bring his team a three-pointer against Arsenal on Wednesday and he will no doubts get similar opportunities this time around against the strugglimn defense of Stoke’s.
Stoke City vs West Ham United: Predictions
West Ham United have kept their net untouched against the likes of Chelsea and Arsenal and thesy are well worth backing not to lose against the out.of-form Stoke City side at the odds of 1.66.
You can also back the Hammers to keep a clean sheet at 3.75 as well as Javier Hernandez to score anytime at 3.00.
