  • 30' Hull City AFC currently sit 19 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

  • 40' With 0 assists to his name this season, Mark Harris is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Hull City AFC.
  • 45' That is a card for Oxford United FC. Ciaron Brown will be fuming at that decision.
