The Tigers will have Andy Dawson available for Saturday's clash with Arsenal while Stephen Hunt faces a late test on his foot problem.

Dawson missed last Sunday's defeat at Everton after suffering an asthma attack but will now hope to slot straight back into the side for the teatime game against the Gunners with Hunt remaining as the only real doubt in manager Phil Brown's plans with the foot problem that sidelined him at Goodison Park.

"Andy had an unfortunate asthma attack last weekend but he has trained two or three times this week and he will be throwing his hat into the ring," said Brown.

"Stephen Hunt has been with the physio all week and we'll have a look at him today."

Brown will also welcome Craig Fagan back from suspension and with Dean Marney and Jozy Altidore also now fully fit, the City boss believes his squad is growing stronger at the right time of the season.

"We're getting the squad together. The belief, the desire and certainly the knowledge of what is necessary in the next ten games is there," added Brown.

"We've addressed that this week and how important the next ten games are in creating the next chapter of Hull City's history."

Supporters are reminded that Saturday's game against Arsenal kicks-off at 5.30pm.
