In form Hull City face West Bromwich Albion on Saturday in the Championship, as 6th hosts 5th in the race for a playoff place. The Tigers recorded a superb third away win in a row in the Championship in midweek with an outstanding win at Southampton and that means over the last 6 games, only Leeds has better form than Hull's five wins and one defeat. Liam Rosenior has done a fine job at the helm for the Humberside club this season and their excellent run of form has seen them jump into the final playoff place in the table. Their excellent run has been based on their away form as they have lost two of their last three at home, a 2-1 defeat to Norwich and a 1-0 loss to Swansea sandwiching a 1-0 win over Millwall at the MKM Stadium.

If the Tigers' home form is not that special despite a good recent run of results, the same can be said for West Brom's away form this season. The Baggies have the 11th best record in the division this season, picking up 19 points out of 48 on the road, and they have won just one of their last five, losing three. However, they are unbeaten in their last two and earned a fine 3-0 win on the road in the week at Plymouth Argyle. Kipre (61), Johnstone (76) and Fellows (90+1) scoring in the second half to earn the Baggies a key away win against a team with a very good home record. Just one point separates the two teams in the Championship table which makes Saturday's game so important for both.
