Our prediction for this FA Cup match:
Hull City will be aiming to book their spot in the FA Cup last 32 when they take on Doncaster Rovers on Sunday afternoon. The Tigers did well to hold Leeds United to a 3-3 draw at the weekend, meaning that they are high on confidence ahead of the visit of Doncaster. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Abu Kamara, who scored a brace against the Whites, while both Mohamed Belloumi and Liam Millar remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The Donny, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Port Vale. The Donny, though, are not regarded as good travellers and given Hull City’s fine display against Leeds United, we predict that the visitors are going to return home with their hands empty. Midfielder George Broadbent is widely expected to return to Doncaster’s starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Hull City):
Hull City are a professional football club that was founded back in 1904. The Tigers used to play their home games at Boothferry Park, but they moved to the KC Stadium in 2002. The stadium capacity is 24,450.
Hull impressed in the 2015/2016 Championship campaign and, as a result, they returned to the English Premier League. Hull City fans consider Leeds United their main rivals, but Sheffield United are regarded as Hull’s fierce rivals as well. Steve Bruce took over the reins at the club in 2012 and the experienced tactician helped the team book a place in the 2013/2014 FA Cup final, but Arsenal proved to be a big catch for the Tigers in the title decider.
Hull City finished the 2013/2014 Premier League campaign in 16th place in the standings to achieve their highest ever top flight finish. It has to be noted that Curtis Davies was named the team’s player of the year in the 2013/2014 season.
