Hull City's Robbie Brady: 'We have to maintain our form'

Hull City midfielder Robbie Brady has called on his teammates to maintain their recent run of good form to distance themselves from the relegation zone in the Premier League.

The Tigers have moved four points clear of the bottom three following back-to-back wins over Aston Villa and Queens Park Rangers along with a vital point against Manchester City.

Brady feels that his team have to reproduce the same level of displays in their coming fixtures against Stoke City and Sunderland.

He told the club's official website: "It's a big time for us. It's the same for the teams around us as well because they'll be looking at things and wanting to pick up points.

"We're looking at things exactly the same. We've got games coming up that are the type you want to be picking up points from, especially at this stage of the season. Hopefully we can do that and climb up the table.

"We've got Stoke first and they've been playing well this season. It's always a tough place to go, but we're in good form ourselves so we're only looking at our own game as we look to come away with a good result."

Steve Bruce's men take on Stoke City at the Britannia Stadium later today.
