Hull preview: Solid results lately to give the fans hope
After spending some time at the very bottom of the Championship standings, Hull have managed to get a couple of wins in their last four matches and now they are 22nd in the table. So, Hull remain in the relegation zone, but they are now just one point behind the first team outside of it, which rightfully gives their fans hope that they could avoid relegation this season.
Meanwhile, Oscar Zambrano is suspended for this game, while Charlie Hughes, Liam Millar, Kasey Palmer, Mohamed Belloumi, Ryan Longman, and Carl Rushworth are out with injuries.
Predicted lineup: Pandur (GK), Coyle, Jones, McLoughlin, Giles, Slater, Puerta, Alzate, Omur, Bedia & Burstow

Leeds preview: Hoping to keep their red-hot form going
With 52 points from 25 games in the Championship this season, Leeds have taken the top spot in the league and are currently three points ahead of the closest rivals. With five wins and two draws in their last seven matches in the league, Leeds have been in great form recently and if they can keep this pace going forward, they are certainly the main candidate for promotion this season.
When it comes to team news, Ilia Gruev and Junior Firpo remain sidelined with injuries, while Jayden Bogle and Sam Byram are questionable.
Predicted lineup: Meslier (GK), Schmidt, Struijk, Rodon, Wober, Tanaka, Ampadu, Gnonto, Aaronson, James & Piroe

Player to watch: Joel Piroe
With nine goals in the Championship this season, the Dutch forward has been in very good form and he's one of the main reasons why Leeds are doing as well as they are, which is why Piroe is our player to watch in this game.
