Hull have started the season well as they look to bounce back to the Premier League at the first attempt after relegation last season and they currently find themselves in a play off position in the Championship.
That makes for a tough tie for the Swans who will be looking to take one step closer to a repeat of the Wembley triumph of 2013.
And that also means that Monk will not be taking the tie for granted “Hull are a good team. They’ve started well and they’re a strong outfit,” he said.
“They’ve retained a lot of their players from last season, so we’re going to have to be on form to go up there and get a result.
“It doesn’t matter about who’s played and who’s not, my team selection will be about who can help us win.
“We want to go there strong and try and win the game. We’ll assess the players when we can and then make a judgment on who should be playing and who we’re going to take.
“I’m sure there’ll be some changes. Whether it is wholesale changes like I did for York, we’ll have to wait and see.”
