Match Preview
Duo out for Tigers Hull will be without Robert Koren and Joe Dudgeon for the home clash with Coventry. Midfielder Koren has missed the last two matches and is not expected back in contention until the middle of next month while defender Dudgeon was forced out of the midweek defeat at Portsmouth with a similar problem. Manager Nick Barmby has no other new injury or suspension problems but could make changes after seeing his side's play-off challenge stall in recent weeks. The Tigers have won only one of their last 10 matches and the Portsmouth loss was their third successive defeat. Midfielder Corry Evans and striker Aaron Mclean are pushing for recalls after starting on the bench on Tuesday night and another forward, Jay Simpson, made his first appearance for Hull since early January as a second-half substitute. Barmby's side, ninth in the table, could climb back into the top six with victory. Coventry's Nathan Cameron remains a doubt for the trip. The defender missed last weekend's massive 2-0 victory over relegation rivals Portsmouth due to a knock and faces a race against time to be available at the KC Stadium as the Sky Blues aim to climb out of the bottom three. Chris Hussey came in to replace Cameron and put in a solid display despite playing through the pain barrier as he delays surgery on his left ankle. David Bell (knee) hopes to return to full training next week with a view to being available to face Peterborough, but Carl Baker (hamstring), Hermann Hreidarsson (shoulder) and Richard Wood (knee) remain absent. Midfielder Gael Bigirimana replaced Conor Thomas at half-time against Pompey and is firmly in contention for a starting berth after an impressive performance.
