    I have not been a frequent visitor to Hull for any reason, and rather doubt that a cold December night would entice me to drive 400 miles to watch this game. For some reason, games between the two have been very poor in recent years. Just look back to April this year, a 0-0 draw at the Vic, the highlight being a refereeing display that left many bewildered.

    Hull City find themselves in a precarious position, languishing in 22nd place with just 15 points from 18 matches. Their record of 3 wins, 6 draws, and 9 defeats paints a picture of a team struggling to find consistency in the Championship. The Tigers have managed to score 17 goals while conceding 26, highlighting their defensive frailties.

    At home, Hull's form has been particularly concerning, with just one win, four draws, and four defeats at the MKM Stadium. Their most recent outing resulted in a disappointing 1-0 home loss to Blackburn Rovers, extending their winless run to five matches in all competitions.

    This man, Ruben Selles has been brought in to try and lift their fortunes.
    The Spaniard will take charge of the Tigers for the first time on Wednesday night after joining from League One side Reading.
    It will be a tough start for Selles as Hull look to end a run of six straight defeats when they welcome promotion-chasing Watford.

    Tom Cleverley is not bashful when asked if he’d take any sort of away win to get the Hornets firing on the road. “Absolutely, yeah. Absolutely,” “It’s probably better to be lucky than good sometimes in this league."

    Away to bottom of the league who have a new manager in charge in a cold mid week night though worries me!

    Sounds like they look nice and create chances but cannot score and then give silly goals away .

    It doesn't matter if we are playing a side at the bottom or top of the league we have to be more ruthless and clinical than they are and take no prisoners without of course any stupid red cards

    Hull is grim, went there a lot to see a mate when he was at Uni there.

    Does Tufan still play for them? He was a fat useless turd for us.

    Maybe with the other left wing backs he is seen as third choice?

    Still no place on the bench for Jebbison. Surely he is not wanted and can go back!

    Must be going back .

    Hopefully Ngakia will stay fit .

    Strong attacking options on the bench if needed .

    Nice positive comments below that tweet I see !
