The League One leaders' match against Pompey, currently fifth, will now be played on December 18 so it can be shown live on Sky Sports.

As things stand the match will be played behind closed doors, but if Hull can move out of Covid-19 Tier 3 when a review takes place earlier that week, it is possible a small number of fans could attend.

It will be the second time the Tigers have had a Friday night game on Sky and they will be hoping to fare better than they did at Fleetwood Town, a match they lost 4-1.

Hull have won four out of five matches at home in the league this season.
