Hull consolidated their place in the Sky Bet Championship play-offs with a 4-2 win at home to Derby.

Second-half goals from John Egan and Lewis Koumas earned the Tigers three important points after they had lost their last two league games.

Hull took the lead after nine minutes when Callum Elder scored an own goal against his former side.

Craig Forsyth equalised seven minutes later for Derby, only for Oli McBurnie to score his 13th goal of the campaign after another Elder gaffe.

Sammie Szmodics restored parity for the Rams three minutes before the break, before Egan and Koumas consigned John Eustace's men to back-to-back defeats.

Despite their mini-slump, the Tigers began positively and deserved their early lead.

Ryan Giles and Liam Millar were the architects of the opening goal after the former tried to catch Josh Vickers unawares at his near post following a smart overlap.
