Tom Eaves in contention for Hull return
Posted Tuesday, December 24, 2019 by PA
Tom Eaves could return to the Hull squad for their home game against Nottingham Forest on Boxing Day.
The 27-year-old striker was given the green light to feature against Birmingham on Saturday following a head injury, but was not involved.
Fellow frontmen Josh Magennis (hamstring) and Norbert Balogh (calf) remain sidelined for the Tigers.
Hull boss Grant McCann also continues to be without midfielders Jon Toral (knee) and Kevin Stewart (foot).
Forest, without a win so far in December, could be boosted by the return of Samba Sow after a two-month injury lay-off.
Carl Jenkinson could also be back in contention after an ankle injury while Yohan Benalouane (hip) will be assessed.
Yuri Ribeiro’s knee injury is being assessed on a day-by-day basis but Michael Hefele (Achilles) and Tendayi Darikwa (knee) remain out.
Forest have lost three of their last five Championship matches but are still just three points outside the play-off places.
