Sunday's fixture between Hull City and Arsenal at the KC Stadium will act as a dress rehearsal before the two teams face each other in the FA Cup final next month.

Hull progressed through to the Wembley showdown after a dramatic 5-3 victory over Sheffield United, but manager Steve Bruce could make at least two changes for the visit of the Gunners.

Front pairing Shane Long and Nikica Jelavic were cup-tied for last week's semi-final, but they could be recalled in place of Yannick Sagbo and George Boyd.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has seen the club enjoy a positive week in the Premier League after they regained fourth place in the table.

After they defeated West Ham United 3-1 on Tuesday evening, Wenger watched on as Everton slumped to a 3-2 loss at home to Crystal Palace.

Wenger could recall Aaron Ramsey as Arsenal look to move four points clear of their rivals before the Toffees play Manchester United.
