Steve Bruce to make changes against Manchester United

Steve Bruce has confirmed that he will make alterations to his Hull City starting lineup for tomorrow's trip to his former club Manchester United.

Results at the weekend secured Hull's status as a Premier League club with two matches to spare, while they also have the FA Cup final against Arsenal on the horizon.

With that in mind, Bruce has revealed that he is planning to rotate his options ahead of the showpiece encounter at Wembley.

"The people who need to play can now get a bit of football under their belts," he told reporters. "It would be awful to put players in at Wembley who haven't played much football.

"It's a chance for me to give a few of the lads who have been on the bench in recent weeks a chance to play a game or two."

The Tigers are 15th in the table, having collected 37 points from their 36 outings.
