Boss wary of Palace threat

Nigel Pearson expects Crystal Palace to provide a stern test for his Hull side as they travel to Selhurst Park. The game sees two sides that have recently found form go head-to-head, and Pearson knows his team must be switched on if they are to come away with a positive result. "I think they will be disappointed with the season they`ve had so far," Pearson told the club's official website. "But their form has picked up of late and it will be a tough game for us. "This is a chance for both sides to make more inroads into the league and we know it`s an important game. "We've worked hard at our away form and there is very little margin for error now. "It's a tight one and difficult to call, but we've just got to concentrate on ourselves and make sure we keep picking points up."
