Hull City injury and suspension latest ahead of crunch Championship meeting at Millwall
Hull City have a host of possible doubts as they prepare to return to the cut and thrust of Championship action on Saturday at Millwall.
Sunday's FA Cup exit at the hands of League Two Doncaster Rovers was damaging in more ways than just the result with City picking up some niggles, while others were unable to be involved, like Ryan Longman who had recovered from his groin issue but was not risked.
Already without long-term injury absentees Liam Millar and Mohamed Belloumi with ACL knee injuries, head coach Ruben Selles has inherited a nightmare at the MKM Stadium but will hope the situation eases in the coming weeks with the Tigers entering the final 20 games of the season.
