Loic Remy has said that he wants "revenge" when Newcastle United play Hull City this weekend.

The French striker scored a brace when the Tigers played at St James' Park earlier in the season, but the home side lost 3-2.

The 27-year-old told the club's website: "I remember that game at home. It was a good game for me in terms of goals, but I remember we lost that game so for me it's going to be revenge to try to win this game.

"Now we have a little bit more confidence. The team did very well [against Aston Villa] so we have to do the same game after game and Hull City is going to be a big test for us."

Remy is Newcastle's top scorer this season, with 12 goals in all competitions for the Magpies.
