Hull City are ready to welcome Blackpool to The KC Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Tigers are clearly on top, having won 25 and lost only 11 of the 47 games.
The previous match played between the two in Hull was more than three years back, in January 2001, with Blackpool inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Tigers in a League Division Three match.
