Jake Livermore to make first Hull City league start of season

Hull City manager Steve Bruce has revealed that Jake Livermore will make his first league start of the season in Saturday's Championship match against Nottingham Forest.

Livermore, 25, has not started a league match since May after he was suspended by the club for testing positive for cocaine.

The Football Association recently reached the verdict that Livermore would not be punished due to the fact that his positive test came shortly after the death of his child.

He recently returned to the Tigers' starting lineup in last week's Capital One Cup victory over Swansea City and is now ready to face Forest tomorrow.

Bruce also confirmed at his pre-match press conference this morning that both Curtis Davies and Andrew Robertson should be fit in time for the trip to the City Ground.
