Hull City head to Carrow Road this weekend to face Norwich City in their latest Championship outing.
Hull City are 9th in the table after the first eight games and are three points off the play-offs. They have won their last three fixtures on the spin against Stoke City, Cardiff City and QPR as they travel down to East Anglia in search of number four.
The Tigers had a turbulent summer and saw some key players leave the club such as Jaden Philogene, Jacob Greaves, Jean Michael Seri and Ozan Tufan. They have since brought in 18 new faces to freshen up their ranks.
It has taken a while for their players to gel together and patience has been required. They didn’t win at all in August but appear to have found their feet now under the guidance of former Stuttgart and Hamburg manager Tim Walter as they look to continue their form.
Hull City team news
As per HullLive, Hull City will make a decision on whether to include new pair Charlie Hughes and Joao Pedro. Gustavo Puerta is also pushing to make the squad after featuring for the Under-21’s.
Dogukan Sinik, Ryan Longman, Andy Smith and goalkeepers Thimothee Lo-Tutala and Harvey Cartwright remain sidelined for the Tigers.
Starting XI
Pandur; Coyle, Jones, McLoughlin, Drameh; Zambrano, Slater, Palmer; Belloumi, Bedia, Millar
Ivor Pandur has been impressive in goal for Hull City and will keep his place after his performance against QPR last time out, despite competition for his place from Brighton and Hove Albion loanee Carl Rushworth and Anthony Racioppi.
The back four of Lewie Coyle, Alfie Jones, Sean McLoughlin and Cody Drameh is likely to stay the same, despite Hughes’ return to contention.
In midfield, Oscar Zambrano should come in for Xavier Simons after catching the eye on Tuesday. Kasey Palmer and Regan Slater deserve to keep their places in the team.
Mohamed Belloumi and Liam Millar have both looked dangerous over recent matches and will look to cause Norwich City some problems.
Chris Bedia has scored two in his last two matches and is likely to get the nod again ahead of Joao Pedro and Mason Burstow.
