The Clarets are the first team in the history of the second tier to go 10 consecutive league games without conceding a goal. They remain in third place in the league table, still three points off the top two. Hull stay 22nd and inside the drop zone, a place below Derby County on goal difference.

Follow live coverage as Burnley face Hull City in the Championship today. An increasingly competitive second tier in English football remains an intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League on offer at the end of the season.

Hull's predicament can be partially blamed on a debilitating injury list; Liam Millar and Mohamed Belloumi are on the long road back from cruciate ligament problems, while Kasey Palmer (ankle), Charlie Hughes (muscle), Harvey Cartwright (hand) and Finley Burns are also missing.

Burnley will look to make up ground in the battle for automatic promotion against relegation-threatened Hull City on Wednesday (19:45 GMT).
