Steve Bruce may be tempted to look back on October’s meeting at the Emirates when his Hull side led 2-1 before Danny Welbeck’s injury-time equaliser. An extra two points would be very welcome now but Tuesday’s win against Liverpool has renewed the optimism on Humberside. Arsenal need one more win to all but seal a top-four place, though have designs on finishing second. Paul Chronnell
