Hull City looks forward to continue their two games unbeaten run as they host Everton at the KC stadium on Thursday.
Hull secured their third win of 2009 against Stoke earlier in the month and then came from 2-0 down to lead before drawing 3-3 with West Ham.
The points gained from those games have lifted the Tigers out of the relegation zone.
Brown's men will be more determined than ever to make it three games unbeaten and capitalize on the fact this is their third match at home in succession, but offering them more incentive is the fact that Hull will be keen to gain revenge on David Moyes's side for the Carling Cup thrashing dished out at the KC Stadium earlier this season.
Bernard Mendy is banned following his red card in Saturday’s 3-3 draw with West Ham, so Paul McShane could cover at right-back.
Seyi Olofinjana is still absent with a hamstring injury but Boaz Myhill could return to the starting XI after sitting out Saturday's game with a knee injury.
Everton go into the game with Saturday's comprehensive defeat to Manchester United still fresh in the mind. The Toffees were out-thought and outplayed by Sir Alex Ferguson's side at the weekend in a result that has seen Everton slump to 14th in the Premier League.
Everton have won one of their last nine games in all competitions. Phil Neville has been ruled out for a further two to three weeks so he can have surgery on the knee injury he picked up against Fulham back in September.
Marouane Fellaini is suspended for acrewing five yellow cards whilst Diniyar Bilyaletdinov is suspended for his final game of a three match ban.
Steven Pienaar could return after two months out with a knee issue but it is more likely that he will be saved for the Liverpool clash this weekend.
