What channel is Hull City vs West Brom on? Kick-off time, how to watch, team news, head-to-head and more

West Brom kick-start their weekend with a Friday night trip to East Yorkshire to take on Hull City at the MKM Stadium as they look to close the gap on the Championship play-offs. Carlos Corberan’s side are currently six points off the top six but have a game in-hand on the teams above them in the table.

The Tigers, on the other hand, have seen their faint hopes of a late push into the promotion places fade away over recent weeks and are now winless in their last four fixtures. Nevertheless, they have seen a significant improvement since Liam Rosenior took over in early November and are comfortably sat in mid-table now after flirting with the relegation zone earlier in the campaign.
