Manchester City head to the KC Stadium to face Hull City Tigers in the Barclays Premier League knowing that they need to win to maintain pace with Chelsea at the top of the table.
Blues boss Jose Mourinho has asserted that the Etihad Stadium outfit are the true favourites to win the title, but his Man City counterpart Manuel Pellegrini will be well aware that his team can only overtake Chelsea at the top if they win all three of their games in hand – and only goal difference would likely place them higher.
Hull are the challenge in front of the Premier League title favourites then, and given that Steve Bruce has already claimed the scalps of Liverpool and Newcastle United and pushed Manchester United hard for a share of the points, the game is hardly the gimme it may have appeared on paper.
Bruce invested wisely in the likes of Curtis Davies, Tom Huddlestone and Jake Livermore last summer, while strike pair Nikica Jelavic and Shane Long arrived in January, and should be a big threat.
Given the resources at Manchester City though – even with Sergio Aguero injured one of Edin Dzeko or Stevan Jovetic should come in to partner Alvaro Negredo up front – the visitors will be firm favourites to win this game.
If not the title overall.
