TEAMS: Bruce DROPS McGregor to Hull bench, Saints make THREE changes
OUT-OF-FORM Hull goalkeeper Allan McGregor was dropped in favour of veteran Steve Harper as manager Steve Bruce makes five changes at Southampton.
Allan McGregor drops to Hull bench
The Scotland goalkeeper has been unconvincing of late so the Tigers turned to their 40-year-old reserve at St Mary's, where James Chester, Tom Huddlestone, Sone Aluko and Stephen Quinn were the other alterations.
Southampton made three changes, with Maya Yoshida, Steven Davis and Sadio Mane brought in by manager Ronald Koeman.
England right-back Nathaniel Clyne, rather surprisingly, dropped to the bench.
Southampton: Kelvin Davis, Alderweireld, Fonte, Yoshida, Bertrand, Wanyama, Schneiderlin, Long, Steven Davis, Mane, Pelle
Subs: Clyne, Tadic, Ward-Prowse, Elia, Gazzaniga, Reed, Targett
Hull: Harper, Chester, Dawson, Bruce, McShane, Elmohamady, Livermore, Huddlestone, Quinn, N'Doye, Aluko
Subs: McGregor, Rosenior, Hernandez, Brady, Diame, Sagbo, Robertson
