10 clearances in 90 minutes
Egan generated two shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Chelsea. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 50th minute.
Analysis: Egan was a slight doubt for the trip to Stamford Bridge after picking up a lower leg issue in a collision during Tuesday's Carabao Cup defeat to Sunderland, but he went straight back into the side and saw out another full 90 minutes. Hull's run of clean sheets came to an end against Chelsea, though the defender put in a solid shift with two tackles (one won), two interceptions and a block, and he reached double figures for clearances for the third time with 10. He offered something at the other end too, registering his first two shots of the campaign.
Starting in return
Egan (ankle) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Chelsea.
Analysis: Egan was confirmed fit by manager Sergej Jakirovic after any concerns surrounding the ankle issue were put to rest, earning a starting role for the fourth consecutive match of the season. The center-back has gone the full 90 minutes in each of his three Premier League starts this campaign, and his availability is a relief for Hull heading into a tough fixture against Chelsea. He has notched 28 clearances, five tackles and four interceptions across those three appearances, making his continued presence in the back line an important factor for the club.
