The EFL Championship returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Hull City welcome Fulham to the MKM Stadium on Saturday.
This will be the second meeting between the sides this season after the visitors claimed a 2-0 win when the sides met in August's reverse fixture.
Hull City failed to return to winning ways last Tuesday as they suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Derby County.
This followed a 1-0 defeat against Preston North End on February 5 which saw their three-game win long streak come to an end.
With 32 points from 30 games, Hull City are currently 19th in the EFL Championship table, level on points with Cardiff City.
Meanwhile, Fulham claimed a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Millwall when the sides met at the Craven Cottage Stadium last time out.
Prior to that, they were dumped out of the FA Cup courtesy of a 4-1 loss against Manchester City.
Fulham remain at the top of the league standings with a six-point lead over second-placed Bournemouth after picking up 61 points from 29 games.
