Watford v Hull City

Last updated : 30 April 2006 By Gary Calder

Watford are expected to include the Coca-Cola Championship's leading goal scorer, Marlon King in their squad as they attempt to clinch third place with a point from their final home fixture of the season against Hull City.

King, suspended for the last two matches following his sending off at Wolverhampton Wanderers on Good Friday, may have been left out ahead of the play-offs which start next week, but the striker is keen to play.

Skipper, Gavin Mahon returns after being rested at Queens Parks Rangers last Saturday and there may be a full debut for 17-year-old Theo Robinson, impressive as a substitute in the win at Loftus Road.

Meanwhile, Peter Taylor's Hull City travel south to complete their campaign beset by injuries.

Northern Ireland midfielder, Stuart Elliot has a knee compliant and is rated as extremely doubtful, whilst former England man, Nick Barmby is also struggling with a torn hamstring.

Rui Marques, on loan from Yorkshire rivals, Leeds United is not expected to recover from a knee concern, while Sam Collins, Ben Burgess, Danny Cole, Ian Ashbee and Stephen McPhee are all ruled out with long term injuries.
