  "account": "Hull City gears up for a Carabao Cup second-round tie against Stoke City at the bet365 Stadium, confident after a 2-0 win over Manchester United. Manager Sergej Jakirovic aims to utilize the squad rotation, with several players still sidelined due to injuries. Eliot Matazo, Darko Gyabi, Jack Butland, Oscar Zambrano, Charlie Hughes, and Joe Gelhardt remain unavailable, while Hidemasa Morita's return from a calf issue remains uncertain. Semi Ajayi and Nobel Mendy, the attackers who scored against Manchester United, are also being monitored for potential knocks. Jakirovic plans to switch from a back five to a back four, with John Egan most likely to be replaced. Jens Hjerto-Dahl is expected to join the lineup in the number 10 role, while Oli McBurnie will lead the attack. The match is scheduled to kick off at 19:45 on Tuesday, 25 August 2026 and will be broadcast live on Sky Sports+ in the UK.",
