Former Hull City boss Steve Bruce inflicted yet another loss on the Tigers, despite their promising 3-0 win over Peterborough United the previous week.
Hull still remain 13 points above the relegation zone, however they face tough tests against the likes of Luton Town, Huddersfield and Middlesbrough in the next month.
First up is a trip to Birmingham City and a win over the Blues could potentially see them leapfrog them into 18th place in the Championship.
