Brazilian superstar Robinho is slated for a possible return to action during Hull's visit to the City of Manchester Stadium on Boxing Day, with the £32.5 million striker having recovered from his sprained ankle.
Benjani Mwaruwari's injury in the defeat at West Brom at the weekend means that he misses out, while Chedwyn Evans (foot) and Darius Vassell (toe) will await the outcome of scans to assess their fitness prior to the match.
Michael Johnson (groin), Valeri Bojinov (calf) and Martin Petrov (knee) all remain on the long-term injury list.
Hull manager Phil Brown is likely to hold back Andrew Dawson, Craig Fagan and Anthony Gardner from the trip across the Pennines as they recover from their respective injuries, while Sam Ricketts is suspended following his sending off against Sunderland. Paul McShane, however, is back following his suspension.
