Sheffield Wednesday will take on Hull City in the Championship at the Hillsborough on Monday. Hull City are sixth in the standings with 39 points from 25 matches whereas Sheffield Wednesday are struggling in the drop zone with 19 points.
Hull City had a disappointing December. They lost four out of the seven fixtures they took part in and will be desperate to kick things off on a winning note in 2024. They'll draw confidence from their most recent outing, a home win over Blackburn Rovers in which a 63rd minute Alfie Jones goal converted a 2-2 draw into a 3-2 win.
The visitors seem to be turning their season around steadily. After winning just one out of the 18 games they have played from August to November, they managed four wins from seven games in December. Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
