​Silva sees break in Portugal as benefitting Hull

Hull City boss Marco Silva has been speaking to the media ahead of the Tigers' match against Burnley this weekend.

"It was good to get away to Portugal and work with my team. The training camp was very beneficial," Silva said.

"It was important for the players to get to know me and my coaching staff a bit better.

Looking ahead to their match against Burnley:

"Burnley will come here and look to cause us problems but we have to be confident and play our football," Silva said.

"We respect Burnley, they have had a good season so far, but we want to win.

"Tomorrow is one more chance for us to take points. There is a good spirit and the players are confident."
