Hull could be without Ireland striker Shane Long for their meeting with West Ham tomorrow.

Steve Bruce says the 27-year-old picked up a knock and is a risk for tomorrow’s game.

Hull are currently 12th, 8 points above the drop zone. Long joined the Tigers in January and has scored 3 goals for the club since then.

Longs arrival Nikica Jelavic has also been a welcome addition, scoring 3 goals since he came from Everton. Bruce has been talking about how the Croat and Long have increased their firepower and helped them to mid-table but he knows the job is not yet done.
