The teams are in ahead of Tuesday’s night relegation-battle between the Tigers and the Black Cats.
Hull City were narrowly beaten by Stoke City at the weekend, with the defeat taking them closer to the relegation zone.
Sunderland, meanwhile, will be hoping that the suspension of winger Adam Johnson doesn’t affect their performance, as they too drift towards the bottom three, after defeat to Manchester United. There was positive news after that defeat, however, with Wes Brown having his red card successfully rescinded. He starts!
