Hull City will host Swansea City at the MKM Stadium on Saturday in another round of the 2023-24 EFL Championship campaign.
The home side endured a slow start to the new year but seem to have found their feet in recent weeks and are once again on the hunt for playoff football. They beat Millwall 1-0 in their last match, with Jaden Philogene-Bidace scoring the sole goal of the game just five minutes after kick-off.
Hull City sit sixth in the Championship standings with 45 points from 29 games and will be looking to extend their winning streak when they play on Saturday.
Swansea City, meanwhile, have endured a poor start to life under new boss Luke Williams and currently find themselves deep in the bottom-half of the pile. They were beaten 1-0 by newly-promoted Plymouth Argyle in their last match and perhaps deserved more from the game but were guilty of wasteful finishing.
The visitors sit 17th in the table with 33 points from 30 matches. They will now be looking to shake off their poor run of form and return to winning ways this weekend.
