Hull City travel to the Reebok Stadium on Saturday looking to cement their place in the Championship's top two.

Steve Bruce's Tigers sit three points ahead of third-placed Watford following their 2-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers on Tuesday evening, which was their third successive win.

Bolton drew 1-1 with Derby County in midweek, which was their fourth draw in six matches. Dougie Freedman's side are currently four points ahead of the relegation zone.

Hull ran out 3-1 winners when the two sides met at the KC Stadium back in September.

Trotters defender Marcos Alonso could return after serving a one-match ban for the red card he picked up against Nottingham Forest last Saturday.

Hull striker Mohamed Gedo is expected to keep his starting place after scoring in each of his last three appearances.
