By Barney Corkhill, Editor | 24 February 2014

Hull make six changes to their starting lineup for tonight's FA Cup fifth-round replay against Brighton, who make five switches of their own.

Hull City have made six changes to their side for this evening's FA Cup fifth-round replay against Brighton & Hove Albion at the KC Stadium.

The Tigers go into the game off the back of an impressive 4-0 away victory over struggling Cardiff City at the weekend, but manager Steve Bruce has opted to make a host of changes for his side's second game in the space of three days.

Steve Harper, James Chester, Robert Koren, Sone Aluko, Matty Fryatt and Yannick Sagbo come into the starting lineup as Hull look to secure their place in the quarter-finals of the competition.

Brighton, meanwhile, make five changes of their own from the side that fell to a 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Wigan Athletic on Saturday.

Peter Brezovan, Inigo Calderon, Lewis Dunk, Keith Andrews and Jake Forster-Caskey all return to Oscar Garcia's side, while in-form Leonardo Ulloa remains up front.

Hull: Harper; Figueroa, Elmohamady, Chester, Davies; Meyler, Koren, Livermore; Aluko, Sagbo, Fryatt
Subs: McGregor, Rosenior, Bruce, Huddlestone, Boyd, Faye, Quinn

Brighton: Brezovan; Calderon, Dunk, Upson, Ward; Ince, Andrews, Forster-Caskey; David, Ulloa, Rodriguez
Subs: Ankergren, Greer, Bruno, Chicksen, Lua Lua, March, Obika
