Hull City boss Phil Brown takes his Premier League debutantes to face their toughest task yet, when they play Arsenal on Saturday at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal are on top of Premiership, having won their last three games and are looking in ominous form ahead of the visit of the Tigers to North London.
However, summer signing from Middlesbrough George Boateng believes that the Tigers can get something from the match with the Gunners if they play as a team. With Hull suprising a lot of people early on this season, having only lost once and boasting an unbeaten record on their travels from the KC Stadium, which sees them stand 8th in the table.
“I think people don't see it as their biggest test because they don't think we will get anything there,” Boateng told Sky Sports News.
“But Hull is playing well, the team is playing well, the boys are enjoying it and everyone in the camp is looking forward to upsetting the odds.
Boateng remembers earning a point with Boro at the Emirates last season and thinks Hull are more than capable of a similar result against Arsene Wenger’s team.
“Last year we got a draw with Middlesbrough, and it is difficult as they have a very good team, good players.
“But from experience I know it is not only about good players but it is a team effort and if Hull City have a good team effort and go there and play as a team then we have as good a chance as Arsenal.”
