History of the Hull City v Coventry City fixture

Coventry City travel to take on Hull City at The KC Stadium on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Sky Blues will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 8 and win only 3 of the 15 games.

The last time the two teams met at Hull City was more than a decade ago, in October 1995, with Coventry City inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the Tigers in a League Cup match.
