Sports Mole previews the Championship clash between Hull City and Huddersfield Town.

Hull City will be looking to maintain the pressure on the Championship pacesetters with a victory against Huddersfield Town.

The Tigers have recorded back-to-back 2-1 wins on the road after previously winning just one game in four.

Manager Steve Bruce could be forced into a change by replacing Paul McShane, who was injured during last week's win over Watford, with Jack Hobbs.

Huddersfield Town boss Simon Grayson has seen his side fail to keep a clean sheet in their last five games and that could lead to changes in defence.

Jack Hunt may be demoted to the substitutes' bench for Calum Woods, while Sean Scannell could take the place of Simon Church in attack.
