Hull will look to keep their place in the top-six spots when they restart their Championship campaign against Coventry. This match at the MKM Stadium in Hull on Friday will see the hosts 6th with ten points from five matches while the visitors are 14th with six points. Hull went into the break with a 1-0 win Leicester fashioned by a Liam Delap goal. That result extended their unbeaten run to four matches. This sequence saw the Tigers win three and draw one match. That is an impressive return considering they started the campaign with two back-to-back losses. A 2-1 loss to Norwich on day one was followed by a 2-1 exit in the League Cup at the hands of lower league club Doncaster. Another win here could even temporarily push them to the top of the table, so there’s enough at stake for Hull to pull in their best performance.

Coventry also went into the break on the back of a four-game unbeaten run. That’s where the similarities end though, as the Sky Blues drew three and won one in that sequence. All three draws were earned in a row, including a thrilling 3-3 draw against Watford in their last game that needed a late 87th goal from Matt Goden. It is their away form that still needs some addressing, as Coventry have won just a point on the road this campaign. That came in a 1-1 draw at Swansea in their last away game – after two losses against Leicester in the league and Wimbledon in the League Cup.
