Fulham will be looking to extend their unbeaten run in the Championship when they face off with Hull City at the MKM Stadium in the 32nd league fixture on Saturday evening with kickoff at 18:00.
Hull have had difficult campaign this season with the club managing to claim 32 points 30 matches so far and currently sit in 19th some 12 points off the relegation zone.

Prior to the defeat Hull were coming off a 1-0 defeat to Preston North End which ended their three-match winning streak in the division.
Therefore, Shota Arveladze’s men will looking to return to winning ways as they look evade a mounting relegation pressure as they have played at least one match more than most of the sides below them, but they face an uphill task this Saturday and will be fascinating to see how they perform.
