Hull City's Sone Aluko: 'Our home form has to improve'

Hull City forward Sone Aluko is adamant that his side need to start winning their home matches if they are to remain in the Premier League.

The Tigers have recorded just two wins at the KC Stadium all season, but they did manage to beat Everton in their last home match on New Year's Day.

Aluko has insisted that Steve Bruce's men need to continue to show consistency to haul themselves to safety this season.

He told the club's official website: "A lack of consistency and a loss of form has been a problem for us this season. Confidence isn't a problem and we've always had the belief that we've got enough in the squad to win games and to stay in this league.

"Our home form is going to be massive for us now and certainly in my time here, our home form has always been relatively good. It saw us get into the Premier League and it saw us stay in the Premier League.

"We know that our home form this season needs to improve. We'll take it one game at a time, but I'm confident that we've got enough to stay in this league."

Bruce's side face Newcastle United in the Premier League later today.
