Hull City v Coventry City in the Championship (20: 00 BST) Sky Blues manager Frank Lampard serving one-match ban Tigers are 20th in table, two points above drop zone Coventry would go fifth with victory Get involved #bbcefl Glenn Speller HT: Hull 0-0 Coventry Goalless at the break then. Who do you think will win the game? Thumbs up for Hull, thumbs down for Coventry. HT: Hull 0-0 Coventry Peter Swan Former Hull City player on BBC Radio Humberside I got some free underpants today. I'd best tell my missus that I've got a spare pair of underpants in my pocket. The only good thing is that she'll know they're clean. Hull are giving away underwear as part of their #Check Your Tools campaign at their final three home games to raise awareness about testicular cancer. #bbcefl on X, via Whats App on 03301231826 or text 81111 (UK only, standard message rates apply) The Sky Blue Deck: Best 45 minutes away from home we’ve played in a while - we’ve cut through Hull at will. Their 'keeper is having a stormer. HT: Hull 0-0 Coventry Steve Ogrizovic Ex-Coventry City goalkeeper on BBC CWR There have been good moments for Coventry and, overall, they've looked the better side going forward. But whenever you don't score, there's always that risk of a sting in the tail. Hull aren't big scorers but Coventry got away with one, with those Kasey Palmer chances. HT: Hull 0-0 Coventry Peter Swan Former Hull City player on BBC Radio Humberside You'd expect any team to get opportunities like that, no matter how well they play. I'm not saying Hull aren't a good team, but they're not good enough at the moment. Hull City 0-0 Coventry Not sure how, but we're goalless at the break. Ivor Pandur has denied Haji Wright three times and also kept out Ellis Simms as Coventry threatened to swamp the home side. But, for all that it's Hull City who had the clearest opportunity just before the break but Kasey Palmer's effort was cleared off the line by Matt Grimes with the the defender also keeping out Palmer's follow up. You feel if it keeps going like this Coventry will take advantage - home boss Ruben Selles needs to tweak a few things. Hull City 0-0 Coventry Lincoln slings in another of those long throws - too much height on it and Coventry clear for a corner Better from the home side though Hull 0-0 Coventry Mike White Commentator on BBC Radio Humberside That was a bit Keystone Cops from Hull. We're talking retro, there - look it up, kids. Hull 0-0 Coventry Peter Swan Former Hull City player on BBC Radio Humberside Unbelievable. Those were two great opportunities for Kasey Palmer. The first one was the easiest - he tried to side-foot it when he needed to leather it. It was only five or six yards out. Hull City 0-0 Coventry Wow - for all Coventry's dominance Hull City have a golden chance to take the lead but Kasey Palmer, with the goal gaping, sees his effort cleared off the line and when it comes back to him he again has a defender in the way. Brilliant defending from Matt Grimes twice for the visitors but Palmer pulls his shirt over his face - he knows it should be 1-0. Hull City 0-0 Coventry Haji Wright bursts into the box with real intent and slides a ball in along the six-yard line but Tatsuhiro Sakamoto can't quite make contact. The only surprise is Coventry aren't ahead. Hull City 0-0 Coventry Lewie Coyle at last gets in behind Coventry's defence to lift in a threatening cross for the home side but he cuts a frustrated figure when he sees no-one has gambled to get in the box and try to finish things off. It was good build-up involving Joe Gelhardt but they do look like toothless Tigers tonight. #bbcefl on X, via Whats App on 03301231826 or text 81111 (UK only, standard message rates apply) Jon, Balsall Common: What's Lampard's touchline ban going to be like when Coventry stop scoring 94th-minute winners? Jamie Paterson scored the late clincher for tonight's visitors at home to Portsmouth on Saturday. More added-time drama to come here? Hull City 0-0 Coventry Hull City are making no inroads whatsoever on Coventry and at times the visitors' smart one and two touch football has got them struggling to keep pace. The positive for the home side is it's still 0-0. It's quiet inside the MKM Stadium. Hull 0-0 Coventry Peter Swan Former Hull City player on BBC Radio Humberside Coventry are very much growing into this. They're showing movement and finding space. Ivor Pandur has had to show a safe pair of hands on two or three occasions. Hull need an injection of something. We've had to get used to watching them like this at times, unfortunately. It looks like Coventry have sold out their allocation in the away end. Hull City 0-0 Coventry The home side are yet to have a shot on target. Coventry have had four efforts saved by Ivor Pandur. Of the strugglers only Cardiff are below Hull City in the current form table across six games and you can see why. Hull 0-0 Coventry Steve Ogrizovic Ex-Coventry City goalkeeper on BBC CWR That was an excellent move from Coventry for the first chance, with Matt Grimes starting things at the back and Ivor Pandur making a smart save from quite close distance. The angle wasn't quite as good for the second opportunity, but Haji Wright has got a powerful left foot. He's got to work harder off the ball, though, for me. Hull City 0-0 Coventry More good play from Coventry and here is Haji Wright getting on the end of things yet again and yet again Ivor Pandur has to make a good save. Worrying signs for the home side. Hull City 0-0 Coventry Coventry are content to hold onto a bit of possession and try to work an opening. They are getting a lot of joy down both flanks and the home side are having to stay very disciplined. Tatsuhrio Sakamoto goes off down the right and his cutback is met powerfully by Haji Wright and Ivor Pandur makes a smart save. Hull 0-0 Coventry Clive Eakin BBC CWR Sport Coventry assistant manager Joe Edwards is getting a few messages out there. I don't know whether he's wired up to Frank Lampard but he's taking the initiative. He has experience as the main honcho at Millwall. Last Updated 14th April 2025 at 20: 45 Please Note: All times UK.
