Bruce blow for Tigers
Hull City,

Hull are likely to be without Alex Bruce when they travel to Doncaster in the second round of the Capital One Cup.
The defender, and son of manager Steve Bruce, was replaced by Paul McShane in Saturday's goalless draw at Charlton after suffering a knock.
The full extent of the injury is not yet known, but he is expected to miss the trip. McShane should again deputise again.
The Tigers boss may also opt to shuffle his attack after their stalemate against the Addicks. City have found goals hard to come by so far this season, scoring just once in three outings.
Strikers Aaron Mclean and Jay Simpson were both on the bench at the weekend and could be handed starting roles.
Fellow forward Matt Fryatt is Bruce's only injury concern. He is out for at least three weeks with an Achilles problem.
