Hull City boss Steve Bruce has admitted that he is relieved that his players can end the season without the worry of relegation.
Results over the weekend meant that the Tigers would be spending the next campaign in the top flight after securing their promotion last year.
Hull travel to Manchester United tonight before facing Everton at the KC Stadium on Sunday.
"I had a look a few weeks back and thought what difficult games we had to finish the season with Manchester United and then Everton," Bruce told the club's official website.
"They were never going to be easy, but they're big games to look forward to and we can now go and have a freedom about us.
"Whenever you go to Old Trafford, it's a place that you want to play at. There'll be 75,000 there and it's a wonderful place to go and play. Let's go and enjoy it."
Hull are currently in 15th place in the Premier League table.
