Hull City play host to Brentford at The KC Stadium on Saturday afternoon, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having chalked up an impressive 17 wins out of 26 previous matches.

The last time the two teams met at Hull City was back in September 1998, over five years ago, with Brentford inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the Tigers in a League Division Three match.
