Hull City play host to Liverpool at The KC Stadium on Saturday afternoon, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. There have only been 2 against the opposition from the 6 matches played by the The Tigers.

The last time the two teams met at Hull City was back in September 1999, over five years ago, where Liverpool annihilated the The Tigers 1-5 in a League Cup match.
