Hull City host Sheffield United at the MKM Stadium in the EFL Championship on Saturday, with both sides having made poor starts to the season so far.
Hull City are currently 21st in the table, having won only one game so far this campaign. Grant McCann's side will know that this is a great opportunity to climb up the table with a win against fellow strugglers Sheffield United on Saturday.
Sheffield United have also won only once in the league this season and are currently 19th in the table. However, Slavisa Jokanovic's side are on a four-game unbeaten streak and will be confident going into the game against Hull City on Saturday.
With both sides needing a win to kickstart their seasons, Saturday's game is sure to be a well-contested matchup.
