Dadi Prepared for Hull Injury Return

Striker Eugene Dadi, who missed the 1-1 draw with Bournemouth at Dean Court on Saturday, has given his Manager Brian Little a timely boost with the news that he looks set to return to the starting line-up for the all important home game against Hull City this Saturday.

Dadi was substituted during last Tuesday's nights 3-0 win over Huddersfield at Prenton Park and was later found to be suffering a groin injury that subsequently kept him out of last Saturday's 1-1 draw at Bournemouth, with Chris Dagnall taking his place.  Fellow Striker Iain Hume and Captain Jason McAteer also picked up knocks against Bournemouth but Little is expecting everyone, bar long-term absentee Simon Haworth and suspended defender Mike Jackson, to be available by Saturday.

Speaking to the Daily Post, Brian Little said "Everything should come together by the end of the week. We are not looking at any of the injury problems being too serious and hopefully we will have everyone back.

"On Saturday we missed Eugene a little bit. The one area where things did not quite work was up front."

Brian Little has hinted strongly that an attacking 4-4-2 formation will be utilised on Saturday and he told the Daily Post that he would be afraid to 'have a go' at the opposition.  He said "This is the sort of game in which you would like to get out there and have a bit of a go at the opposition.  We are at home and if we win the game, we will put pressure on Hull."

With Hull quickly selling out their allocation of 2,300 tickets for the Cowshed End of Prenton Park and Home tickets also selling a fair rate, it is expected that there will be a high attendance - certainly the highest this season at Prenton Park.  The attendance is likely to be 11,000+ and it is hoped that the recently quiet atmosphere can be banished on Saturday in favour of noise noise noise!!!
