The Tigers propelled themselves into a play-off spot last week, stylishly sweeping Cardiff City aside. They will be hoping to deliver another impressive display when they make the journey to face Liam Manning’s men.

Hull will have to manage without Liam Rosenior on the touchline, as the Tigers boss is set to serve a touchline ban.

Bristol City sit 14th in the table, seven points adrift of the play-offs. There has been promise in the early days of Manning’s tenure and the Robins defeated promotion hopefuls Sunderland last weekend.

Why is Bristol City v Hull City taking place on a Friday night?

Both of the fixtures pitting the sides against each other were both moved to Friday nights after an agreement was struck. A statement issued by Hull back in June read: “Both of Hull City’s Sky Bet Championship matches against Bristol City have been moved to Friday nights.

“The Robins’ visit to the MKM Stadium in our second home game of the season will take place on Friday 25 August to avoid a fixture clash with Hull FC. The reverse match at Ashton Gate will be played on Friday 22 December, with both games to kick-off at 7:45pm.”
