Hull City defender Michael Dawson eyes win over Leicester City

Hull City defender Michael Dawson has called on his teammates to focus on next weekend's "vital" Premier League clash away to Leicester City.

The Tigers currently sit five points above the relegation zone, while fellow strugglers Leicester are seven points adrift of safety.

Following their 1-1 draw with Sunderland in midweek, Dawson is hopeful that Hull can 'dust themselves down' and pick up three important points at the King Power Stadium.

"We've got a little break in the fixture list this weekend," he told the club's official website. "Of course we were disappointed after the Sunderland game and it took a couple of days to get over that.

"But all you can do is dust yourselves off, get back to training and we're working towards Leicester now which is another big, vital game. We want to beat the teams that are in and around us."

Hull have won two of their last four games in the Premier League.
