On target: Hunt is the Tigers' top scorer[LNB] Key Hull duo Andy Dawson and Stephen Hunt are unlikely to be fit for the crunch clash against Fulham at the KC Stadium.[LNB]Stand-in captain Dawson limped off with a hamstring injury during last week's 3-2 defeat at Portsmouth and leading scorer Hunt has been sidelined for more than a month with a foot problem.[LNB]Manager Iain Dowie, who takes charge of his first home game, will have George Boateng back from suspension while Jozy Altidore has recovered from a hamstring injury but youngster Liam Cooper (ankle) and Amr Zaki (knee) are set to miss out.[LNB]Club captain Ian Ashbee (knee) participated in training for the first time this week after almost a year on the sidelines but remains some way away from a first-team return.[LNB]Kamil Zayatte (knee) and Anthony Gardner (ankle) are also long-term injury victims. Dowie remains hopeful Gardner will return before the end of the season but admits Zayatte may not.[LNB]Provisional squad: Myhill, Duke, Marney, McShane, Mouyokolo, Kilbane, Bullard, Cairney, Garcia, Geovanni, Boateng, Ghilas, Olofinjana, Barmby, Altidore, Fagan, Venegoor of Hesselink, Folan, Mendy.[LNB]CLICK HERE FOR THE REST OF THE WEEKEND PREMIER LEAGUE TEAM NEWS [LNB]
