Hull City

The threat of relegation is looming for both Hull City and Sunderland ahead of their meeting at the KC Stadium on Tuesday.
Steve Bruce's Hull (6-8-13) and Gus Poyet's Sunderland (4-13-10) both lost on Saturday to remain fully entrenched in the bottom six of the Premier League. Between them the two clubs have won just two games in their last 19, but they have scraped together enough points in the last month to pull away from the bottom three.
