A Hull statement read: "The Tigers have appealed against Tom Huddlestone's red card in Saturday's match against Everton.
"The 30-year-old was dismissed in the second half at Goodison Park after referee Paul Tierney ruled he had fouled Idrissa Gueye.
"If the appeal is unsuccessful, Huddlestone will miss the Tigers' forthcoming Premier League fixtures against West Ham United, Middlesbrough and Manchester City.
"The club will hear the outcome by the end of the week."
