Irvine and Grosicki doubtful for Hull

Jackson Irvine and Kamil Grosicki are likely to miss Hull’s Sky Bet Championship opener against Aston Villa.

Irvine has been ill and Grosicki has had to deal with some “personal issues” according to boss Nigel Adkins, meaning neither has trained much since returning from the World Cup.

Ondrej Mazuch and James Weir (both knee) are also out for Hull.

Reece Burke, George Long, Manuel Milinkovic and Jordy de Wijs are among those ready for their debuts.

Steve Bruce remains in charge at Aston Villa after their summer takeover ahead of the trip to the Tigers.

Jack Grealish is still at Villa and should play despite being linked with a move to Tottenham ahead of next Thursday’s deadline.

Scott Hogan has missed all of Villa’s pre-season friendlies with a groin problem and will not face the Tigers while Rushian Hepburn-Murphy (ankle) is out.

Youngster Callum O’Hare is also battling a knee injury and is likely to be absent for Bruce’s side.
