Hull City will host Burnley at the MKM Stadium on Wednesday in another round of EFL Championship football.
The home side have had mixed results this season but remain on course to avoid the drop. They played out a 1-1 draw against Coventry City last time out with Oscar Estupinan coming off the bench to score the opener before their opponents drew level midway through the second half.
Hull have picked up 46 points from 36 games this season and sit 14th in the table. They will now be looking to return to winning ways this week and continue their push for the top-half of the pile.
Burnley have enjoyed a stellar season and are inching closer to a Premier League return under manager Vincent Kompany. They picked up a comfortable 3-0 win over 10-man Wigan Athletic 3-0 in their last game, with Southampton loanee Nathan Tella scoring a brace before Lyle Foster came off the bench to seal the win.
The visitors sit atop the league table with 80 points and will be hopeful of adding to that tally come Wednesday.
