Our prediction for this Championship match:
Hull City and Southampton square off against each other at MKM Stadium in what is expected to be an interesting Championship game. The Tigers are eager to put an end to their three-game winless run and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday’s clash. All Ozan Tufan, Harry Vaughan, and Lewie Coyle are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Saints, meanwhile, were producing fine performances before the international break, with the team beating both Leeds United and Stoke City, while sharing the spoils with Rotherham United. Given Southampton’s attacking potential, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on both teams to score. All Jack Stephens, Juan Larios, and Ross Stewart are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the away 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.
