Huddersfield Town are back on the road when they travel to the MKM Stadium to take on Hull City in their next Sky Bet Championship fixture; 3pm kick-off.
The Terriers go into the game following their FA Cup exit to Preston North End, while Hull come into the game following a defeat to Fulham, which saw them also exit the FA Cup.
In October, the Terriers scored two against Hull with the score line finishing 2-0.
THE OPPOSITION
This is Hull’s second consecutive season at Sky Bet Championship level after they were promoted as champions in the 2020/21 campaign following their relegation in the 2019/20 season.
Liam Rosenior was appointed as Hull manager in November 2022 after his time as interim manager at Derby County ended. Since his appointment, the Tigers have picked up three wins and four draws in his nine games.
Hull City currently sit 16th in the table having won nine, drawn six and lost 11.
ONES TO WATCH
Óscar Estupiñán
The striker joined Hull in the summer from Portuguese side Vitória de Guimarães on a free transfer. Since his arrival at the club, the Columbian has scored 11 goals and assisted once in his 23 games this season, making him the Sky Bet Championship’s third top scorer. The 26-year-old has scored in three league games in a row, leading to Hull picking up seven points from their last three league games.
Jacob Greaves
The versatile defender who can play at centre-back and left back has played a big part in Hull’s defensive improvement under new manager Liam Rosenior. Greaves came through the academy at Hull City before being sent out on loan to Cheltenham Town, where he played 35 games. The 22-year-old started 39 games during Hull’s title-winning campaign, which saw them gain promotion back to the Sky Bet Championship in 2020/21. Greaves has scored three goals this season, including a goal in Hull’s last league game, a 4-1 win against Wigan Athletic.
Regan Slater
Slater, who has played the majority of his football in midfield this season, has played in all but one of Hull’s games this season. He has three goals and two assists this season, including one assist in Hull’s last league game. The defensive-midfielder joined Hull from Carlisle United in January 2022 and has since made 77 appearances in all competitions, scoring four times and assisting five times.
