Back-to-back home fixtures in W12 yielded just a solitary point for Chris Ramsey’s side and the R’s Head Coach will be looking for a vast improvement from his charges at the KC Stadium.
In truth, Rangers’ away form has largely been decent to date this term, with three wins in all competitions, including a memorable comeback victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
And the Hoops will certainly need to be at their best to return from Humberside with a positive result this weekend, against a Tigers team who currently sit fourth in the second tier.
Steve Bruce’s side, who were relegated along with the R’s last season, have made a fast-start on their return to the Championship, and stand on the brink of their best start to a home campaign in 32 years.
The Tigers are chasing a fourth consecutive win at the KC Stadium, having started the Championship campaign with a bang in their own backyard, already recording victories over Huddersfield Town, Fulham and Preston North End.
Alejandro Faurlin could be in line for a recall to Ramsey’s side after missing the last two fixtures with a minor injury, but Yun Suk-Young, Armand Traore, Sandro and Leroy Fer remain sidelined.
The Tigers, meanwhile, reverted to a back three against Cardiff in midweek and left with a 2-0 win, and Bruce has to choose whether to use the same system at the KC Stadium tomorrow.
Ahmed Elmohamady was dropped after 100 consecutive starts in that match, but will be vying for a recall.
Arsenal loanee Chuba Akpom is also hoping to graduate from the bench.
