Our prediction for this Championship match:
MKM Stadium will be the centre of attention when Hull City and Millwall lock horns in the Championship round 3 on Saturday afternoon. The Tigers head into the match following back-to-back draws with Bristol City and Plymouth and they are now on a quest to record their first win of the season. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team, but both Harvey Cartwright and Ryan Longman remain in the recovery room.
The Lions, on the other hand, have been struggling at the back at the start of the season and given their difficulties on the road, we believe that the time has come for Hull City to register their first triumph of the process. Summer signing Macaulay Langstaff is pushing for his first start, while all Billy Mitchell, Murray Wallace, and Zian Flemming are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.
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.
