One point and one place seprates the two sides ahead of kick-off. West Brom are on 55 points to Hull’s 54 and a win for Carlos Corberan’s side would give them some breathing space against a side breathing down their necks. Coventry City play Preston North End on Friday night and they’re just four points behind West Brom and so the best result would be a draw to avoid any teams narrowing the gap on them.

Both Hull and West Brom were in action in midweek and won their respective fixtures. Hull City claimed an impressive 2-1 win against Southampton who still harbour hopes of an automatic promotion spot. West Brom were 3-0 victors at Home Park defeating Plymouth Argyle.
