(Reuters) - HULL CITY 2 WATFORD 0Ten-man Hull City earned a priceless 2-0 home victory over Stoke City to keep themselves just above the Premier League relegation zone on Saturday. Things looked bleak for the Tigers when Oumar Niasse was surprisingly shown a straight red card after 25 minutes by referee Bobby Madley for a challenge on M'Baye Niang. With relegation rivals Swansea also winning, Hull made sure of the points nine minutes later when Sam Clucas found the top corner with superb 30-metre shot. They have now won four consecutive home league games. With four games remaining 17th-placed Hull have 33 points to the 31 of Swansea.
