    We say: Hull City 1-2 Bristol City
    Despite both lining up in 3-5-2 formations, we expect to see an open, entertaining game at the MKM Stadium on Saturday.

    In truth, the result could go either way, but the visitors look to be a more settled unit at this stage of the season and should be full of confidence after a strong pre-season.

    Due in most to us having a settled side, whereas Hull haven’t. As Angelica said I hope they’re right.

    Coach has broken down
    Not the greatest of starts to the new season... City are arriving now in 10 taxis because the team coach has broken down! But they're all rocking up to the stadium now.

    A comment from the club
    Here's a bit more explaining why the team rocked up in 10 separate taxis: "The coach was delayed leaving the team hotel due to an electrical fault.

    "Alternative arrangements were made and the players arrived in time for their pre-match preparations, with the coach following on afterwards."

    Interesting to see how they line up, Scott RWB? , or behind the front two ?

    also strange two RWB’s on the bench.

    The bench...
    So there's no Andy King on the bench, Sam Bell, Towler and Idehen are all missing out too from the matchday squad.

    We think it's Mark Sykes out at wing-back this afternoon.

    Yes possibly, strange though when there are two natural RWB’s on the bench.

    Adriano Basso interview
    The former City favourite played for both clubs and he's done a nice interview in the Hull programme for this game.

    Here's a snippet from it in reference to the reception he received from City fans after signing for Hull: "If I can compare it to any other day, even the play-off final at Wembley, that was the best day of my life.

    "I thought the Bristol City fans were going to boo me, especially the way I left the club, but they sung my name for 90 minutes.

    "Nigel Pearson came to me after the game and said he had been in football for a long time and he had never seen anything like it and believes he would never see it again."
