Steve Bruce relishing final five games after win over Crystal Palace

Hull City manager Steve Bruce believes in his side's survival chance after their victory against Crystal Palace.

Hull City manager Steve Bruce has backed his side to pick up enough points to survive in the Premier League, as long as they play like they did against Crystal Palace.

Dame N'Doye struck twice to give the Tigers a vital 2-0 win on Saturday - their first victory since February.

Bruce's side play the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United during a tough run-in, but the manager is confident of retaining their top-flight status.

He told Sky Sports News: "If we think 31 points is enough then we're far mistaken. We've still got five games to go, but we're in a better position than we were this morning.

"We've now got four out of five at home against the big boys, but if we play like that then we know we're capable of producing another couple of results."

Hull now sit 16th in the Premier League table, one point clear of the relegation zone.
