Hull City have been unable to find a way through against struggling Blackburn Rovers in the Championship as the sides head into the break tied at 0-0.
Both sides struggled to create chances in the opening stages, but the visitors threatened in the 10th minute when Craig Conway's cross caused panic in the Tigers' penalty area before drifting behind for a goal kick.
There was a half-chance for Hull moments later as Ahmed Elmohamady's cross was headed towards goal by Abel Hernandez, but the Uruguayan was only able to nod high and wide.
Rovers goalkeeper Jason Steele was the busier of the two stoppers in the first period, pulling off saves to deny Curtis Davies at his near post and Elmohamady from distance moments later.
Blackburn's best chance to snatch a goal against the run of play came when Alan McGregor kept out a Jordan Rhodes header at full stretch, five minutes before the referee brought the first half to a close.
