The Tigers are two points from safety but have played a game more than three of the four sides above them - and two more than Portsmouth.
Swansea, who are 10th, have lost just one of their past five (W2 D2) and are seven points behind the play-off spots heading into the weekend.
Hull City have won just one of their past nine league games against Swansea City (D5 L3) and have failed to win any of their past four against the Welsh side.
Swansea have won just one of their past six away league games against Hull City (D2 L3), though it did come on their most recent visit in February 2024 during a 1-0 success.
Hull have failed to win any of their past 13 league games (D4 L9) and the Tigers last endured a longer run between March and August 2002 when they were in the fourth tier (15 games).
Swansea have failed to win any of their past three league games against sides from Yorkshire (D1 L2), the club's longest streak since a run of six matches between January and September 2022.
Swansea are the only side in the Championship so far this season not to score a headed goal, while Hull have conceded the most headed goals (7).
