West Bromwich Albion and Hull City will be searching for points to strengthen their positions at opposing ends of the table when they meet at the Hawthorns on Saturday (15:00 GMT).

The Baggies currently find themselves in 23rd place on the table but just one point away from safety to give them a hope of exiting the bottom three with a home win.

The Tigers, meanwhile, are comfy in the play-off positions, sitting nine points above seventh placed Southampton but also only six adrift of second placed Middlesbrough as things stand.

  • West Brom are unbeaten in their last nine home league games against Hull (W7 D2) since losing 3-0 in October 2008 in the Premier League.
  • Hull City are looking to complete their first league double over West Brom since the 1909-10 season.
  • Since 2016-17, James Morrison will be the eighth different West Brom manager in eight home league games against Hull (after Pulis, Shan, Bilic, Ismael, Bruce, Corberan and Mowbray).
  • Hull City have won 10 of their last 14 league matches when starting the day 20+ points ahead of their opponents in the table (D2 L2).
  • Hull's Oli McBurnie has scored three goals in six Championship appearances against West Bromwich Albion, including the winner at the MKM Stadium earlier this season.
