Caretaker boss Mike Phelan plans to keep Hull's momentum going in the EFL Cup at Exeter by keeping changes to a minimum.

Phelan accepts he has little room for manoeuvre in Devon with only the return of Harry Maguire possibly adding to the 13 senior players he had available for Saturday's 2-0 win at Swansea.

But Phelan says he does not want to upset the rhythm that the Tigers have established by winning their opening two Premier League games since promotion.
