Fri 07 Mar, 11:45 AM


Hull will be without suspended duo Caleb Folan and Jay-Jay Okocha for Saturday's Championship clash with Scunthorpe at the KC Stadium.The pair were sent off within seven minutes of each other in Tuesday night's fiery 2-0 victory over Burnley for violent conduct and begin three-match bans.

With striker Folan and midfielder Okocha out, Phil Brown will be hoping for a boost on the injury front.

The Tigers' boss will consider the condition of veteran frontman Dean Windass (knee) while midfielders Nick Barmby (groin) and Bryan Hughes (knee) may also come back into contention.

Brown's men host Scunthorpe with the hope of overcoming the two-point gap between themselves and the play-off places by extending their unbeaten run at the KC Stadium to five games.
