It’s a big game for…

David Marshall: The summer signing from Cardiff has had a difficult start to life with his new clubs. He has certainly faced a baptism of fire having been instated as Hull’s number one keeper (and his defence has not helped one iota), but it would be a morale boost for the Scotsman to get a clean sheet. That will be difficult on current form however.

Best stat…

Watford have kept clean sheets in successive games having let in goals in their first eight games of the campaign.

Remember when...

The Tigers beat the Hornets 4-1 at the KC Stadium to reach the 2008 Championship play-off final, with goals from Nicky Barmby, Caleb Folan, Richard Garcia and Nathan Doyle?

Player to watch…

Troy Deeney: Walter Mazzarri said earlier this season that the former Walsall striker deserves an England call-up. He has three league goals to his name this season and Hull are the perfect opponents to help him add to his tally, having conceded 15 goals in their last four league games.

Past three meetings…
