History of the Hull City v Bristol City fixture

Hull City play host to Bristol City at The KC Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Tigers are clearly on top, having won 18 and lost only 8 of the 34 games.

The last time the two teams met at Hull City was back in April 1996, over five years ago, with Bristol City inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the Tigers in a League Division Two match.
