Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Blackpool and Rotherham United, Hull City will look to climb to the top half of the table when they face Blackburn Rovers on Matchday 18. The Tigers have been impressive in front of goal of late, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play.

Burnley will look to build on back-to-back wins over Sunderland and Norwich City when they take on Reading in the Championship round 18.
