Arsenal vs. Hull City: Holders meet Tigers in third-consecutive Cup campaign

Arsene Wenger and Steve Bruce are likely to use the full depth of their squads when Arsenal and Hull City meet in the FA Cup on Saturday.

Both Arsenal and Hull City may be forgiven for looking beyond Saturday's FA Cup fifth-round tie when they meet in the competition for a third-straight season at Emirates Stadium.

Aaron Ramsey's extra-time strike won the trophy for Arsenal in 2014 at the Tigers' expense after Steve Bruce's men had taken a stunning 2-0 lead inside eight minutes.

An immediate Cup rematch saw Arsenal win 2-0 on home soil in last season's third round as Arsene Wenger's men went on to successfully defend the Cup.
