Predicted Hull City XI for Burnley with former Liverpool man in line to start
Hull City are back in Championship action this evening
Hull City head coach Tim Walter will almost certainly make changes to his starting XI to face promotion hopefuls Burnley at the MKM Stadium this evening.
The Tigers boss made four changes to his starting XI for Sunday’s 1-0 home defeat to Sunderland, handing a home debut to Charlie Hughes and a debut to Bayer Leverkusen starlet Gustavo Puerta, while there were returns for Xavier Simons and Abu Kamara.
Former Liverpool wide man Liam Millar and Oscar Zambrano were among those dropped to the bench after a fair amount of travelling during the international break, joining Sean McLoughlin and Regan Slater.
The visit of Scott Parker’s Clarets will give City an immediate chance to recover from what they felt was a harsh defeat to table toppers Sunderland over the weekend. And the German head coach may well look to bring back Millar into the starting XI and be tempted to hand a full debut to Joao Pedro, who came off the bench in the closing stages at the weekend.
