Marco Silva is confident that Harry Maguire will be fit to face Leicester City on Saturday, and has backed the defender to be a success for both Hull City and England.

Maguire was an injury concern following the 1-1 draw with Burnley last weekend, but Silva hopes to have the centre-back available as the Tigers bid for a win that could lift them out of the bottom three.

“We will see if Harry can play on Saturday but I am confident that he can,” Silva said.

“I'm sure Harry will have a great career and the next step for him is to be in the national team - he has fantastic skills.”
